I haven't seen one of ceramics but have seen plenty in carved wood.

Wondering if this is chalkware?

I believe most were made from Terracotta.
Compare with this example: https://www.etsy.com/listing/170702672/antique-castle-wall-plaque-terracotta (https://www.etsy.com/listing/170702672/antique-castle-wall-plaque-terracotta)
