A Royal Doulton bone china figurine titled First Dance. The piece is constructed from glazed bone china and depicts a young woman in a classic dance pose. She wears an off-the-shoulder ball gown in pale blue with voluminous white puffed sleeves, featuring a scalloped hem decorated with a pattern of small yellow flowers and green foliage. She is shown holding a decorated hand fan in her right hand, with her hair styled in an elegant updo. The figurine is accompanied by its original dark blue cardboard box. The base bears a black printed circular mark reading ROYAL DOULTON ENGLAND BONE CHINA around a central four-segment symbol, surmounted by a lion standing on a crown, with MADE IN ENGLAND below. Further printed text identifies the model as FIRST DANCE, H.N 2803, and © ROYAL DOULTON TABLEWARE LTD. 1976. A handwritten number 50 in black and faint blue characters are also present to the side of the main mark.
