I am searching for any information about these mugs...purchased a couple recently and thought they were really cool...

can anyone tell me what colors there are?...I have green, yellow and brown, all three are marked orchids of hawaii, japan...no glaze on bottom....do they come in any other colors?

In my research on the web, I've found people referring to them as Maori, Maoi, Headhunter, and #R1...can anyone tell me why R1?...and what is the proper spelling, Maoi or Maori?...seen it both ways but always thought it was Maori...(but hey, whaddo I know)...

I've seen them new for about 5-6$ or so but these have a narrower chin and seem more detailed than the newer ones...any way to date these?

Any information on these guys would be greatly appreciated.
