When the cup fell it sounded like a clay cup, but it surely would have broken into pieces (unless it had some mysterious properties).
As for a carpenter's cup, it would have been made from clay. Clay was widely available and inexpensive. Wood was rarer and more valuable.

PS: The cup used in the movie was probaly made from resin...
