Most of these erotic figures…

Most of these erotic figures actually originate from Vienna, Austria. This one looks like it's most likely Spelter, a pewter color zinc alloy that is painted or plated to resemble bronze, brass or copper.

You can check for bronze…

You can check for bronze with a scratch test on the base with a nail file, spelter will show as a silver grey scratch under the plating or paint.
