    Looks like she is glazed, so wouldn't be bisque.
    Maybe Austrian origin.
    I don't know if I would call her Art Nouveau in style, but she's from about that time period.
    She's very pretty.

    Yes, I also agree that it is a little weird looking.

    Funny yellowish glaze. Doesn't look very high fired. Majolica? Texture gives a Palissy ware vibe.

    I like Palissy ware, and I like the "lady"

    Edit: I'm not comparing color, just the texture.

    "pallasey ware" that's the word I was looking for, thank you. I really like your vase.

    I don't know if that is unfortunate. She already seems overwhelmed by everything that is going on around her and on her.;)

    Well I'd be happy to take her if you think she is weird. Her face it is really well done.

    I think this mark is in Rontgen, if someone has a copy close to hand.

    A porcelain doll maker.
    That explains her pretty face.
    I still think she is lovely - no matter how weird you guys think she is.
