My thinking was, this was in industrial comapany, not an art or glass-ware company. maybe Who ever made the mold for them sort of made a hybrid mug. Not really knowing or caring about the details of Polynesian vs Central American art, they just looked at a few pictures of both art and came up with a design .... I have no proof, just a guess. Maybe a Industrial margarita glass? Thanks for the input.
