    They look fairly modern to me -- I dunno who made them, but continental -- could be Italian, could be German. The capodimonte mark is widely used, but rare is the genuine thing. ;)

    They look Italian to me. Something about the way the hands and feet are rendered...

    Komo-Doesn't Worthpoint just repost the Ebay Sellers description of the item ? I don't think there's any expert peer review/evaluation involved.
