On offer is a refined and elegant Royal Doulton bone china figurine titled “A Hostess of Williamsburg” (HN 2209), first issued in 1959. This exquisite figure showcases Royal Doulton’s signature craftsmanship, rendered in fine English bone china and painted with soft pastels and delicate detail.

Modeled by renowned sculptor Peggy Davies, this figurine portrays a colonial-era hostess in a full-skirted pink and white gown, holding a folded fan with poised elegance. The attention to period detail — from the tight bodice and ribbon accents to the demure hairstyle — reflects the 18th-century American setting of Williamsburg, Virginia, one of the most historically preserved towns in the United States.

This figurine stands approximately 7.5 inches tall, and the underside is clearly marked with the Royal Doulton backstamp, along with the model number HN 2209 and the full title. Issued under license in collaboration with Colonial Williamsburg, this piece remains highly collectible among fans of Royal Doulton and American historical themes alike.
