Description
This Royal Doulton bone china figurine is titled Christmas Morn and carries the model number HN 3212. The piece depicts a female figure in a full-length deep red Victorian-style dress paired with a white ermine-trimmed capelet. She wears a lime green bonnet decorated with a blue ribbon and pink floral accents. The figurine was designed by the artist Peggy Davies. The underside of the base features a comprehensive set of printed marks in green and black, including the Royal Doulton lion and crown backstamp with the text Royal Doulton England Bone China. Additional inscriptions include hand made and hand decorated, HN 3212, Christmas Morn, Designed by Peggy Davies, and a copyright date of 1946. While the design originates from 1946, the HN 3212 designation indicates a later production period than the original HN 1992 series.
