Most of them I've seen were/are in butter or soap dishes, but they also were
inside of ice buckets. I own one with the large hole in the middle and
smaller ones around it similar to yours inside the strainer for a slop
bucket / combinet. I saw one with the big hole/small holes inside a very
fancy chamberpot inside a displayed commode in an antique store. None of
the ones I own or recall were oval.
I've also identified perforated UNglazed inserts for cookware items.
