This bowl is one of the earliest golfing prizes recorded. It is rare to find a porcelain bowl as a golfing prize. The Bow of Fife is an area in the Fife on the east coast of Scotland, five miles west of Cupar, where the Pitcairn family are still landowners. It would seem that the Bow of Fife Golfing Club was only in existence for a few years in the early 19th Century.
