Orchids of Hawaii - Collecting Tiki

Was it Japanese owned? Was it a 2nd generation Hawaiian/Japanese company? Or was it run by some guy who just had all the mugs made in Japan? A disgruntled OA ex-employee? How far back do they go? There must be a story behind it all, shrouded in mystery upon mystery. Or is this all common knowledge that I've simply never heard anything about? They made really cool lamps, but where? Were they made on the mainland? Or what???
