Why We Love It What's not to love about Charlie Mahon pottery, his 'Mackerel' mugs are hand crafted ceramic pottery made from white earthenware clay, glazed (made with a secret recipe), hand painted and re-fired. The end product is a luxurious cream with beautifully hand drawn mAckerman, a perfect gift for that man in your life, husband , Dad or brother.  All Charlie Mahon work is handmade, hand- painted, kiln fired and made in Cork, Ireland.
