   I have two figurines that are at least 120 years old they were give to my   
   Grandmother by her great Aunt.   
   They are a Man and a Woman and I believe they are in 17th centruy dress,   
   they are both white and not glazed he is 12.5 in. tall and she is 11 in tall   
   from the bottom of the base, he is supporting a rife in right hand and she   
   is holding a bird in her right hand, there are no marks on them, I did find   
   an old undated article from a news paper that stated they might be Parian.   
   I can send photo's if anyone has any idea of what they might be.
