What is this for? Keeping pots of tea warm?

Exactly. This one is out of brass and in traditional style of Ostfriesland, a region in northern Germany and the Netherlands.

Alternatively: file that fucker down then hit it with some sandpaper then a scouting pad, and worry less overall about it. Nail files would be fine even, just clean them with a hard bristled brush after. That metal should be pretty soft.
