Vessel always seen out West (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ewer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'vessel' is the definition.
(ewer is a type of jug)

'always seen out west' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'west' could be 'w' (abbreviation) and 'w' is found in the answer.
'always' could be 'eer' (poetic way of saying ever) and 'eer' is found in the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ewer that I've seen before include "Decorative pitcher" , "Jug with wide spout" , "Container" , "Large water-jug" , "Large water jug" .)
