Six inches tall, china. Just bought it at a thrift shop for five bucks. Is it religious. Is it royal. Are those numbers or letters on the base?
Just wondering |

Google images for 'Infant Jesus of Prague'. The letters on the base are IHS (first three letters of the Greek spelling of Jesus' name).
Very similar;

Yup. Infant of Prague. I have a couple in my Catholic items collection. Some of these statues come with real fabric cloaks.
Thanks so much to all of you. Now I'm wondering how old this is and /or this was mass made or what??
