Carolyn, Denise and Pamela are the newest 2010 additions to the popular Royal Doulton ‘Pretty Ladies’ collection, valued at $259 each.
The Royal Doulton Company was founded in 1815 and the first figurines were produced in London and Burslem, in Stoke-on-Trent, in the 1880s. Since that time, thousands of figurines have been produced and are avidly collected throughout the world – none more so than the handcrafted and elegant ‘Pretty Ladies”’ collection of figurines. Theses popular figurines capture the movement and poignant grace of a young lady with satins, silks, flowers, lace and billowing gowns. Whether you collect by artist, name, colour or theme, these items are beautifully handmade and hand-painted, demonstrating excellence in craftsmanship and artistry. Each year, Royal Doulton introduces new designs to add to this world-renowned collection, and the three new additions for 2010 include Carolyn, Denise and Pamela.
