Royal Doulton Biddy Pennyfarthing HN1843 Hand Painted Mid Century Figurine Made in England Mint Circa sales 1940's

This timeless and expressive Royal Doulton porcelain figurine is known as Biddy Pennyfarthing and is one of Royal Doulton's classic and most recognizable antique figures. It was made in England circa early post WWII. It is hallmarked on the bottom to read "Royal Doulton HN 1843 (with a number 3) Biddy Penny Farthing Modeled by Leslie Harradine Royal Doulton Tablewear Limited 1937". Even after all this time, the colors remain very brilliant and the glaze gives the figurine a fabulous shine. This collectible figure is in mint condition with no noticeable flaws. It was part of the Leslie Harradine series known as "Street Vendors". She is wearing a pink blouse with a delicate hand-painted pattern, a gathered white skirt and apron, a scarf around her neck, and a black shawl with pink fringe. Adorned with a multicolored headpiece and holding a bunch of balloons and a basket of yellow flowers, she is an excellent example of Royal Doulton figurines at its finest.See my other listing for the "Balloon Man" if sales you are interested in purchasing the pair. She measures approximately 9" tall x 6" wide and weighs 1.3 pounds. Please look at my pictures carefully as they are a part of the description and reach out if you would like any additional pictures.
