Perhaps, {patxu} will do?

patxu [ pax ] pot
    x1 is a pot/kettle/urn/tub/sink, a deep container for contents x2,
of material/properties x3 

The main difference between {patxu} and {botpi}

botpi [ bot bo'i ] bottle
    x1 is a bottle/jar/urn/flask/closable container for x2, made of
material x3 with lid x4 
 
seems to be the closability.
