Small stone statue found. What is it?

[3859c1]

My brother found an old stone carved statue in a field. Roughly 4" tall. It's a woman with with a cloak type garment carrying a basket with her left arm and her right hand is up to her mouth. It looks very old. Thanks in advance for any help identifying this item.

[h=1]Bisque Antique Figure[/h]This is an unusual figure. It looks to be red riding hood --- but with a blue cloak. She carries a basket on one arm and holds the other to her mouth in puzzlement. At the back of the figure right under the skirts is a brown wolf. There is damage at the base as shown mostly it does have a lot of paint loss.
