The plaque is marked ‘SOFRID 209’ which indicates a Parisian foundry and the number of the piece in a limited run. It is likely to be dated to the early to mid 20th century. It may have been attached to a font containing holy water. The piece measures 12cm high and is attachable to a surface via a bolt on the back. I think the bolt is removable so it could be displayed flat on a surface.
