    I can’t find anything similar to this little guy. Any ideas? Looks like he would have had clothes at one time.. and stands easily, about 4 inches tall.... no marks
    Thanks for any help,
    Charles

    A piano baby?

    My first thought too, but not in that precarious standing position. Too much risk of falling off if the piano shawl got moved at all.

    It looks like yours is a little different from the one on the link - the right pointer finger, and the eyebrows, for example.

    You could run a damp cloth over it. If that decoration is over the glaze I wouldn't get too crazy. Paint on porcelain can come off. Glaze won't budge.
