How can you tell how old a Royal Doulton figurine is?
To tell how old a Royal Doulton figurine is, locate the maker's mark, usually located on the bottom. Since the British maker used different marks over time, researching the wording present on your figurine can give you a rough idea of its age. For example, a piece that reads "Henry Doulton Co." was most likely produced between 1846 and 1854. If you encounter any challenges, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can assist you. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Royal Doulton figurines.
