I need help in identifying what this Chinese lady figurine is made of.

Hi. This figurine has me a bit stumped. It feels lighter than I would imagine for bone, but

the bottom of the robe feels rough and very bone like.  Could it be faux bone, or faux ivory,

or plastic.  I dont want to stick a hot pin into it to check.

Ivory can be on wooden stands,don't know about the colours yours has though,never seen any with colour before.
Its very pretty.
Best thing after you're heat test is take it to someone or search more sites for better info.
You should be able to work it out.
Good luck

Spotted this listing that may be of interest. They indicate these ones are bone:
