Help ID Metallic Boy Figure

Hello. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

I acquired this statue / figure from my in-laws and cant seem to find anything about it. The Boy appears to be in period dress.  Maybe a paperboy?  It is silver but has gold tones coming through. Not sure if from age or if intentional.  I was told it was a gift and was fairly pricey....can't recall the store it was purchased from.  There are no markings I can find on it.  Its fairly heavy but I don't believe it is solid metal.  Porcelain that's been metalized?  Any ideas on the process that made it...

The "boy" is actually a character from somewhere ?  Names   etc also appreciated

Knowing the actual weight and size would help.  It might be silver-plated bronze but just a guess on my part.

Hes about 12" tall and weighs 4 lbs 5 oz. Fairly heavy but I think actual metal would be heavier. There is some gold color showing through in places but he doesn't really tarnish. Has sat on a mantel for years.
Thanks for your input
