Royal Doulton China Bunnykins Baby 2-Piece Nursery Set
Clearance $35.99
Item# IBUNUS08911
Size:
This Bunnykins Nurseryware Set, including Baby Plate and Spoon, can be used and enjoyed everyday to feed a baby or toddler. (Note: Actual Bunnykins scene may differ from photograph shown here.) The chinaware line originated with artwork by Barbara Vernon Bailey, the daughter of Cuthbert Bailey, general manager of Doulton during the 1930s. Unbeknownst to the public, Vernon was not a professional illustrator, but a nun in the Augustinian Canonesses of the Lateran.
Introduced in 1934, Bunnykins tableware depicted Mr. and Mrs. Bunnykins and other rabbits dressed in human clothing, in colorful rural and small-town English scenes, transfer-printed on white china. The earliest pieces, signed by Vernon, are quite rare and highly prized. Bunnykins china was used by Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret and thus became a popular present given as christening and birthday gifts in middle-class English homes. Components: Baby Plate, Spoon.
