My grandparents had them on either side of their fireplace from 1930's-1960's. My parents had them on either side of their fireplace from 1960's-1990's. I've had them wrapped and boxed in my garage from the 1990's until now. I assume that a craftsman made them in 1889 since that is what is etched in the base of each statue. I also assume that they are made of some type of cement since they are heavy. There is nothing broken off of either statue, but some areas of each statue, the paint has flaked away. I think that they are in great condition for being 136 years old. The one statue is of a little boy with long blond hair, dressed in blue with a blue hat and holding a doll like he is keeping it away from the little girl. The second statue is of a little girl with long blond hair, dressed in a white dress with a pink hat a pink bow and holding a ball like she is keeping it away from the little boy. For years our family has always said that Blue Boy and Pinky or Pink girl were playing keep away.

Each statue is about three and a half feet tall and about a foot wide.
