Royal Doulton china has a colorful history that began in 1815 just outside London. Doulton fine china was favored by the English royal family and during the late 1800s, Queen Victoria showed her appreciation by knighting Henry Doulton. King Edward the VII followed with a Royal Warrant in 1901, allowing the company to become known as “Royal Doulton.”

Royal Doulton Bunnykins tableware and figurines are popular ceramic designs manufactured as nursery dishes and collectible figurines. 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 "Barbara Vernon", are quite rare and highly prized.
