Royal Doulton Valerie HN2107 Bone China Figurine

At 13 cm tall and 9 cm wide, this Royal Doulton Valerie HN2107 bone china figurine, with her red, white, and pink dress and serene expression, is a mid-century Royal Doulton figurine of considerable collector appeal, the richness of the red and the delicacy of the pink accents giving the piece a colour and warmth that rewards display in good light.

Made by Royal Doulton of Stoke-on-Trent and produced in the 1950s, Valerie HN2107 is an example of the lady figurines that Royal Doulton has produced since the early 20th century, when the HN series was introduced and quickly became one of the most enduring and widely collected categories of British decorative ceramics. The 1950s production of Royal Doulton figurines is particularly sought after by collectors, the quality of the hand-painted detail and the richness of the enamel colours of this period being consistently high, and Valerie, with her red, white, and pink dress and the precise, fine modelling that characterises the best Royal Doulton figurine work, is a subject that combines formal elegance with a warmth of characterisation that gives the piece genuine decorative appeal. The piece is in very good condition throughout.
