Earthenware with mark on reverse in blue incorporating Royal Arms 'Irish Scenery Elkins & Co' two very faint cracks It has been suggested this 'Irish Scenery' series produced by Elkins & Co was aimed at the Irish market or Irish emigrants. Curiously though many if not all of the views appearing on the pottery are not in fact Irish. This one is of a country house in Selkirkshire built by the Pringle family and is possibly based on the view from Neale's 'Views of the Seats of the Noblemen and Gentlemen in England Wales Scotland and Ireland' 1823. There are figures in the foreground and the hills behind differ from the engraving. The wings on either side of the main house have now been destroyed. It is possible this dish is for a sauce boat or small tureen. unknown
