Thanks, Johnny and GROG!
Johnny, the Chinese Mystery Clay is a waxy, hard clay a friend of mine got while in China.
As you can see, the label is entirely in Chinese, hence the moniker, "Mystery Clay". Babalu, who visits China often, had it translated for me. What I was hoping for was some sort of maker or brand name. What it says are things like "this clay very good for sculpting" "this clay need to be warmed up before use" ect, ect.. So no brand name or nuthin! The name of it remains a mystery, but at least I found out that it's very good clay for sculpting. :)
It's capable of excellent detail. Here's some of the work I've been able to do with it:
 
This is a portrait of the Maori chief Te Aho Te Rangi Wharepu. 7" from top of hat to bottom of base. This is a resin casting from the Mystery Clay sculpt.
Creature From The Black Lagoon, 2" tall.
3" Hula Dancer.
Thanks for looking!
