Hi Stew, welcome to the board. My first thought was they are plant pot holders / jardinieres, but they are rather small to be that perhaps.

They could be purely ornamental - part of a three piece garniture maybe...? Or simply a pair of nice buckets for display.

Agewise, I'd have thought early part of 20th century, so the label stating Xmas 1922 would fit that but I can't suggest where they were made.

My gut is telling me continental Europe but I don't know why! and I could be well wrong. Let's hope someone else can add more for you.  :x-fingers:

Very Nice!!!  I love them.    :clap:

Is the scene on them signed at all?  have you looked to see close up on them.  Looks like a White clay underneath??  I think they have some age to them too.  I love the art work on them too !!!

 :clap: Looks like a good find there !!!

Hello
They look a little like a form of majolica, some of which was scenic. have you tried here?
