Snip

It is quite possible pensives are mass manufatured and
DDs and Snape's just look the same. It's in Harry's
perspective that the pensive is DDs, not an objective
comment. The repeat might just be to throw the reader
off. DD might have never told Snape Harry knew what it
was and would not bother it, or Snape might have
assumed Harry knew not to look in it because he knew
what it was curiosity or no.

I think it would be Snape's as he would need one for
spying (I am assuming he still is) and DD would have
one of his own just because he needs one for all his
thoughts.

The only other wizarding family Harry has had contact
with is the Weasleys. I beleive they conserved the
money to purchase a pensive to use for their children,
hence, Harry only ever saw DDs and Snapes.
