What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a chinese shou lao God of Longevity resin figurine. This figurine depicts Shou (壽), the God of Longevity, as an old man with a very tall, peach shaped forehead, with a flowing beard, wearing robes and holding a scroll in one hand, and a gnarled staff in the other. A crane feeding a young crane in front. There are no Schreger lines visible which would indicate that it is ivory. The crossover japanese / chinese design is typical for ivory substitute resin figurines produced after the 1970 ivory ban. The estimate is based on similar sold at auction. There is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attach to the item.
