    This little china monk was given to my grandson on his Christening day. The two babies, grandfather and grandson are pictured wearing the robe on which the monk is standing.

      A picture to treasure in its own right - and doesn't the little monk look like the babies?

      Love the way you have included all the memorabilia together. I have a similar little monk...but he is a salt shaker. They could be related.

      Sara I've seen the salt and pepper pots but I haven't got any.
