This white clay mould, comprising two halves, is for making grave markers. It was probably made at Watson pottery in Prestonpans in East Lothian.

The mould has straight sides and an arched top. There are four red clay knobs on one half of the mould which fit into the corresponding holes on the other half, allowing the mould to close flush.

Hamilton Watson took over the running of the original William Cadell pottery at Prestonpans in 1817 and continued until he was declared bankrupt in 1838.
