The rim and the base are gold as is the nude figurine handle. Each mug is 6 3/4 inch high by 3 inches wide not including handle. One mug is slightly larger than the other. There are two symbols imprinted on the bottom.

Re: Japanese Mugs, gold nude figurine
Is it remotely possible the apparent Japanese characters on the base are in fact 22/6, or 11/6 underlined, when you turn the base around? Something about the figurines seems a bit Art Deco to me as do the size of the mugs. Or do you have more reasons other than characters on the base for saying Japanese?
