Royal Doulton figurines are an incredibly popular collectible and once you see how intricate the designs are, it is easy to see why. These precious statues are manufactured by the Royal Doulton Company from England and there is quite a lot of history behind them. The company has survived through many World Wars and many of the figurines that were produced during those periods of upheaval are the most popular of all.
The first figurines produced by the company debuted between 1912 and 1913. The very first one ever made was in honor of Queen Mary and carries the number HN1. The HN refers to the designer, Harry Nixon, who handpainted these Royal Doulton figurines. The vast majority if these figurines will carry his initials and that is a great way to tell if you are dealing with an authentic piece.
Between the years of 1928 to 1954, the company developed a new system to provide collectors with more information about the Royal Doulton figurines they were collecting. A small crown and a number appeared on items manufactured during this time. The numbers could be added to the year 1927 to determine exactly when that figurine was made.
By far, the most collectible Royal Doulton figurines were the ones that were made prior to 1939. You can easily tell if you have one of these rare finds due to the fact that the word “potted” will appear on the bottom of the figurine. This refers to the process of making the figurines. In addition, it easy to tell which figurines were produced after 1920, since a small lion will appear on these items.
There are several different highly collectible Royal Doulton figurines that are available at this time. They include the Bunnykins line, which was made during World War 2. Only six figurine types were produced during that time period and although production resumed after the war, the Bunnykins line remained incredibly popular. Newer models are available today, but collectors seek the ones that were made before 1945.
You can also find special editions of Royal Doulton figurines that are also highly collectible. These include models that are after specific historical figures, such as Queen Mary, or after fairy tale characters, such as Cinderella. When it comes to deciding which pieces you should collect, you can go for these first, but at the end of the day, it should come down to your personal preference.
Most Royal Doulton figurines are quite valuable, so as long as you are certain they are authentic, you really can’t go wrong collecting them. They have expanded their line to include animals and many other different types of figurines that are incredibly popular. Look for the most collectible ones first, but don’t let the others pass you by. In a few years, they may also be just as rare as the ones made before 1950.
Royal Doulton figures are especially fun to collect with children and offer a great way to start a child on a life of antiquing.
