Sometime after 1214 (when the roasry came out).

Without marks - there are a couple dozen similar originals and a jillion bazillion copies.

Meaning? Religious idol, I guess.

Mary, the mother of Christ. Means a lot to Catholics. They stick her in the yard like a gnome to ward off evil spirits.

Yours is a little different in that her robe pulls to the right - Greek style. Most others are equal folds on both sides.
