Detail:  Many Chinese put this type of statue in the hallways or entrances of their home to guard and bless the family.  Solid feeling and smooth are two of  the indicators of Dehua porcelain.  Dehua is located in the Fujian Province of China and is one (of three) porcelain capitals of China.  Known as blanc-de-chine (Chinese white) by Europeans, this piece is from the 1970s.  Very nice and in perfect condition.  Signature stamp on back.
