Royal Doulton – Bunnykins Heritage –

Royal Doulton Bunnykins China ware and Figurines arepopular ceramic designs manufactured as nursery dishes and collectiblestatuettes. The chinaware line originated with artwork by Mary Barbara Bailey,the daughter of Cuthbert Bailey, general manager of Doulton during the 1930s.Unbeknownst to the public, Mary Barbara Bailey was not a professionalillustrator, but a nun in the Augustinian Canonesses of the Lateran. Introducedin 1934, Bunnykins tableware depicted Mr. and Mrs. Bunnykins and other rabbitsdressed in human clothing, in colorful rural and small-town English scenes,transfer-printed on white china. The earliest pieces, signed by Vernon, are quiterare and highly prized. Bunnykins china was used by Princess Elizabeth andPrincess Margaret and thus became a popular present given as christening andbirthday gifts in middle-class English homes.

Figurines byCharles Noke featuring various Bunnykins characters began in 1939. The firstline consisted of only six designs. All factories were closed for the durationof World War II, bringing production to a halt, and thus these six figurineshave also become very rare. Following the war, production of Bunnykinsfigurines did not restart until Royal Doulton purchased the Beswick factory in1969. After this, Bunnykins were numbered with the prefix DB and are stillproduced to this day. The Bunnykins figurine line is famous for the largenumber of professions, historical and literary figures, and traditionalcostumes interpreted as rabbits. Named figurines include Policeman Bunnykins,Nurse Bunnykins, Sir Lancelot Bunnkykins, Betsy Ross Bunnykins, LapplanderBunnykins, Fortune Teller Bunnykins, and more. In 2005 a Bunnykins figurinehonoring Barbara Vernon was produced. Titled \"Sister Barbara,\" itdepicts a cloistered nun at her drawing table, presumably painting the originalBunnykins design.
