I believe when he says he lives in CA he means Central America, not California. It's a big world out there guys.
If, in fact, he did mean Central America, then it changes things immensely. They are of a different style than anything I've seen in the tourist shops and museums here in Honduras. This appears to be made of clay, as are some here though many are stone, however this one is much more primitive in style. If they were indeed found in Central America, they could be very old, pre-Maya, or of an obscure culture and certainly worth looking into.
If found in California, my guess is northern Mexico, Yaqui, Yuma or another southern Colorado tribe. Or it could be just someone thirty years ago making clay dolls for the kids and the tourists. Just my thoughts, which don't mean a lot.
