Royal Doulton "Sweet Dreams" HN2380 Bone China Figurine Grandmother & Child

Annihilate the landfill, adopt a cuddling grandma who's already outlived three IKEA bookcases

This is Royal Doulton's "Sweet Dreams" (HN2380), a hand-painted bone china figurine depicting the universal moment: grandmother, sleeping grandchild, yellow wingback chair, absolute contentment. Designed by Margaret Davies, this piece showcases Doulton's signature underglaze painting technique—note the delicate pink floral print on the blanket and the nuanced skin tones. Condition is excellent: no chips, no cracks, no repairs visible. The glaze is intact with good color saturation throughout. A curio cabinet staple that deserves another fifty years of quiet appreciation.

The D'Beetle Difference • Authentic Royal Doulton Production: Part of the HN series figurines, model HN2380, produced from 1971-1990. Check the base for the green Doulton stamp and model number.

• Hand-Painted Detail Work: Each figurine painted individually at the Burslem factory. Notice the variation in the grandmother's grey hair streaking and the careful shading on the child's blue pajamas.

• Substantial Display Piece: Good visual weight for a mantel or display shelf without dominating the space.
