Royal Doulton figurine 'The Foaming Quart' HN2162

This is a vintage Royal Doulton bone china figurine titled 'The Foaming Quart', model number HN2162. Designed by Peggy Davies and first issued in 1955, the piece depicts a jovial, bearded cavalier figure seated in a wooden chair, raising a blue tankard to his lips. The figurine stands approximately 6 inches tall and is crafted from high-quality glazed porcelain. It features a rich, polychrome palette including a deep pink and yellow tunic, dark boots with a high gloss finish, and a purple cloak draped over the chair. Notable details include the meticulously sculpted facial features, a textured grey beard, and accessory elements such as the belt, pouch, and sword hilt. The glossy glaze is uniform, indicating high-quality craftsmanship. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or restorations; the colors remain vibrant and the crazing is minimal or absent of the naked eye. While the base mark is not visible in this angle, this specific model typically contains the Royal Doulton lion and crown backstamp along with the HN number. It exemplifies the mid-20th-century British ceramic tradition and character-based design.
