This Weymss ware hatpin holder, pictured here with five hatpins, was made between 1883 and 1930 at Robert Heron & Sons' pottery at Kirkcaldy in Fife.

The holder is decorated with pink cabbage roses.

In the 19th century, potteries grew in number to meet the increased demand. The largest firms were near the Forth and Clyde rivers and Kirkcaldy became a major centre for potteries. Robert Heron & Co. were famous for their prestigious Wemyss ware.
