*** Look at this beautiful and scarce Royal Doulton estate find! It is in wonderful condition with no breaks, chips or
repairs. There is some crazing from age, mostly visible around the outer surface of the domed candle holder ***
Royal Doulton's BUNNYKINS line of characters were created from the original drawings of (Sister Mary Barbara
Bailey) aka: Barbara Vernon. Barbara's father, Cuthbert Bailey, was Doulton's managing director at that time. The
first of her designs were depicted on their ceramic Nurseryware including this very unique and hard-to-find holiday
themed candle holder depicting Bunnykins as "Santa Claus" in the front concave and "Limbeth Walk" scene with
dancing bunnies and a seated Fiddler on the back side of the candle holder.
This item has the makers mark on
the bottom and is signed by Barbara Vernon near the bottom edge of the Santa scene.
