I recently inherited this little statuette, yet with my little knowledge of Hinduism, I don't know who it is.

The statuette in your question which you want to know more about is of Gautam Buddha and the snake Mucalinda sheltering him.

You can read more about the above in this Wikipedia article.

Also there is Buddhism Stack Exchange site where you can ask questions about the above form of Buddha and about your statuette.

  • Thank you! Yes, I wasn't sure which religion it was from. Should I flag/delete the question as off-topic then? – Hugo Oct 16 '19 at 14:42
