On the base, it says 'One hundred 80' and 'Plug'. I thought it was a really cool coffee mug - a bit difficult to clean, but still cool. Modern majolica?
what's the coffee cup category?

Awesome octopus mug, what a wonderful colorful octopus design! Don't think there is a coffee cup category, usually Pottery covers clay, ceramic, porcelain etc (Kitchen is also right, Animals if you wanted but as you know we are limited to two choices :(
the position of the octopus as if it were swimming in the water, I love it.... what a strange motif for a coffee cup, could it have been made to order for a particular trade?
Very cute mug!!
ho2cultcha, Cute in a disturbing kind of way. >8-0
For what it's worth, it's in the One Hundred 80 Degree Everyday 2022 catalog (along with an Octopus pitcher):

From the murky depth of the seas comes our menacingly cute Octopus Mug. This ceramic gem is great for consuming coffee, tea or any other (whiskey) beverage of your choice.
You can finally fulfill that weird fantasy of drinking from the head of an octopi. Just remember, octopus are more intelligent than other invertebrate. Don't leave him mucking about your kitchen alone for too long or he may decide that he's the captain of the ship and take charge.
Measures 5 inches tall x 3.5 inch diameter. Ceramic. Holds 16oz. Not dishwasher or microwave safe.
Please note: Don't stare into his eyes or he'll consume your soul.
