Vintage Royal Doulton Sleepy Head HN3761 Porcelain Child Figurine Hand Decorated England 1985 Collectible
Porcelain Child Figurine Royal Doulton Sleepy Head HN3761 Hand Decorated England 1985
This porcelain child figurine titled Sleepy Head, model HN3761, was produced by Royal Doulton in England in 1985. Made in bone china and finished with hand-applied decoration, this piece reflects Royal Doulton’s long-standing tradition of narrative figurines designed for collectors and display.
The figure depicts a young child holding a teddy bear and blanket, rendered with softly modelled forms and a glazed surface typical of Royal Doulton’s late 20th-century figurine production. The piece stands approximately 10 cm in height, with a width of 5.5 cm and a depth of 4 cm, and weighs 82 grams. The underside carries the Royal Doulton backstamp along with the model number HN3761, confirming authenticity and production details.
Sleepy Head was part of Royal Doulton’s series of child-themed figurines produced during the 1980s, a period when the brand focused on sentimental domestic scenes intended for shelf display and private collections. These figures were widely collected in the UK and international markets, particularly for their gentle themes and consistent production quality.
The condition is good overall, with no visible cracks or repairs. Minor surface wear consistent with age and display may be present, as shown in the photographs.
