Dave,
 
Check your local ceramics store. Specifically one that sells greenware, we
have a mold or two for a skep shap about 5-6 inches in height with the lid,
it is pretty neat.  Depending on how much work and how crafty you want to be
you can make them into many different designs.  But watch out, greenware and
paint are cheap but it you desire to have them fired after you have made them
pretty, the going price to have them fired around here is 1/2 the greenware
price.  Some techniques require 2 firings.
My mother has accumulated  a pretty good collection but it has taken many
vacations to find them all.
 
good luck !
