1993 Royal Crown Derby Bulldog Paperweight – Old Imari – Silver Stopper

Presenting a classic of British ceramic design: the Royal Crown Derby Bulldog paperweight in the prestigious Old Imari pattern. Crafted in 1993, this piece beautifully captures the stoic and sturdy character of the English Bulldog, draped in a rich tapestry of hand-painted cobalt blue, vibrant iron-red, and intricate 22kt gold gilding.

This particular Bulldog features the factory’s silver stopper, signifying it was designated as a “second quality” piece upon production. For the discerning collector, this offers a wonderful opportunity to own a world-class sculpt with the same weight, presence, and luminous gold detailing as a first-quality item, but at a more approachable value. The hand-applied geometric patterns and floral motifs remain exceptionally crisp, making it a regal addition to any canine-themed collection.

Measuring 3 1/2″ tall x 4″ long x 2 1/2″ wide, it is in excellent condition.

Whether you are a Bulldog enthusiast or a devotee of English fine bone china, this vintage 1993 piece stands as a testament to the enduring heritage of Royal Crown Derby.
