Plates
These pewter communion bread plates were made around 1800 by William Scott, a pewterer based in Edinburgh's West Bow. They are part of a set of communion vessels used in the original Secession Church at Pitcairn Green in Perth.
Each plate has plain rim, reinforced at the back.
There were at least two pewterers called William Scott working in the West Bow in Edinburgh in the late 18th and early 19th century.
