Rabbi and his wife (rebbetzin), glazed coloured ceramic figures made in Lithuania in the 1900's.
The folk artist, who made them, later moved to the USA. He called these figures bubbe and zaydie (in Yiddish: Babe un Zaide = grandma, and grandpa). He made more pieces of them. After 1939 World's Fair they became popular among collectors. SPECIALLY RARE!
