The main source of information about the Bast cult comes from Herodotus who visited Bubastis around 450 BC during after the changes in the cult. He equated Bastet with the Greek Goddess Artemis. He wrote extensively about the cult.
Bubastis, which is now part of Zagazig, Egypt was the center of the largest annual orgy of all of the eastern Mediterranean, perhaps the entire world. In the 5th century BCE, Herodotus reported that 700,000 people participated, drinking wine without limits and having sex with whoever and wherever.[1]

Alabaster is the likeliest answer. It is easy to work and yields an attractive result. It is a soft stone, though, and as such is best-suited to smaller effigies. Bastet was associated with Ra, and was a solar deity. Red sandstone is thought to have symbolic ties to solar deities, and is a harder stone more appropriate to large pieces, so it's possible that Bastet was formed of that. It is also possible that she was a composite of many types of stone.
