This earthenware bowl was identified from sherds from the site of Rathbone's Pottery at Portobello in Midlothian. It dates from around 1820.

The bowl is transfer-printed with a pattern called 'Rustic Houses / Fallow Deer'.

As the 19th century progressed, Portobello became established as a major pottery centre. One of the town's most sophisticated factories was Rathbone's where fine earthenware was made by Thomas Rathbone, his wife Grace and their sons Samuel Robert and James up until 1850.
