I got this from my Mom and am wondering if you can tell me about it or point me in the right direction. Thank you!

It is about 2 3/4" x 2". I only know it was found by the dump in Dickinson County in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It was full of dirt when I got it.

Your head is made by The Schoenau & Hoffmeister porcelain factory, also known as Porzellanfabrik Burggrub, was located in Burggrub, Germany and was founded by Arthur Schoenau and Carl Hoffmeister in 1901
It is mold 1909 and common one to find by them . Yours is missing eyes and a body which would be a composition fully jointed body
Dates from 1901-1930s here appears to be a hairline crack off to side of R eye
Here is one like her posted yesterday . How fun to find her :-)
