Help with maker of this unusual Mug

[stantomm]

Hello I have a bamboo design mug appears to be earthenware with a lid and strange faces designed on it. Size is 5.1/2" with lid.  Have you seen one like this anywhere? can you help with the maker? thankyou for looking and help.

It’s hard to tell from the base pic, but is there remnants of a paper label on the base? If so, try removing it in hopes of a mark of some sorts.

I removed paper from bottom no mark at all??

I noticed the white bamboo part of the mug has a shiny almost like hard plastic coating...just thought I would mention that.

I am getting on my own nerves i meant to say like some of the Anchor Hocking finishes.

I think these are Japanese characters of some sort. I used to live in Japan, it just looks like things I saw there.
