Very Rare Royal Doulton Antique Kingfisher On Rock Hn 224 Style Two Excellent

Posted by admin On December 12, 2024

Very Rare Royal Doulton Kingfisher On Rock HN 224. Model Number: 258 (impressed to base). Issued: 1920 – 1946. Height: 3 1/2 inches (8.9 cm). Colours: Malachite, blue, green, orange and browns. Excellent Condition Assured – No cracks, chips, scratches, restoration or any other kind of damage. To note: There is a small area to the right wing whereby the malachite paint has not taken during the firing process, not damage as this is underglaze and as such the piece is in the same condition it left the factory. Some areas of crazing to the malachite only, top of head and left wing. These observations do not detract from this very rare piece and I do mention for complete accuracy. I have taken photographs with and without flash. Any white areas in my photographs are purely light reflection. Will be sent very safely packaged, as always.
