    Back in the 1970s/'80s I found two of these - I don't remember what the other looks like exactly because I let my sister talk me out of it, and then it got lost.
    Mine was broken when it was knocked off the wall - one of the curls that was then glued back.

    They were both the same size though - about 3 1/2" W x 4 1/2" H.

    I was wondering if anyone here had a clue about it.

    Maybe Walter Bosse for Vally Wieselthier?

    Definitely has a Wiener Werkstätte look.

    Like a Goldscheider mask but, I think, not as well done.

    I once had this Hungarian bust:

    Yeah - it doesn't quite have the refinement of Goldscheider.
    I once had two YUGE (heehee) ones that just took my breath away!
