This Precious Moments Christmas Ornament, The Purr-fect Grandma, is marked on the bottom with the Flame mark(For those who have gone through the fire of life and found comfort in believing)/1983 Jonathan & Davis/Licensee Enesco #E-0516. Precious Moments, the trademark pastel-hued figurines with teardrop-shaped eyes, were created by Samuel Butcher of Missouri in 1978, with 21 figurines ("Original 21"). Sam Butcher was a preacher, and he based his creations on Christian values, naming each figurine based on either sayings from children, or deriving from their innocence. In 1974, a friend invited him to join forces and start the Jonathan & David inspirational greeting card business, utilizing the teardrop-eyed children Sam had been drawing for family and friends over the years. Sam called them "Precious Moments" because they carried messages of loving, caring and sharing to those he loved. This company was the first step toward the phenomenal success of Sam and his Precious Moments illustrations. In 1979, Enesco Corporation transformed the artwork into porcelain bisque figurines. Beautifully detailed, the white haired grandmother sitting in her rocking chair with her cat on her lap is in very good plus condition without chips or cracks, it has been displayed through the years, and she measures 3 inches tall, 1 1/4 inches wide and 1 1/2 inches deep . An addition to any Precious Moments Christmas Ornament Collection. SH & Ins. will be quoted after orders placed. If you have any questions contact me and thank you for looking.
