Saint Julius I mug

The Saint Julius I mug is a keepsake for Julius or someone interested in Rome's Christian history. The pope's mosaic and the details on the reverse combine a devotional image with the name of a fourth-century pontiff. Choose it for a name day or memories of a visit to Trastevere.

The representation shows him in liturgical vestments with a closed book. It comes from Santa Maria in Trastevere, a place linked to his memory in Rome. The mosaic lets you dedicate the gift to someone and share an artistic reference they may recognise or discover on receiving it.

Julius exercised his ministry during the controversies following the Council of Nicaea. He welcomed Athanasius of Alexandria to Rome and corresponded with different communities. He also used meetings and representatives to address disagreements between bishops. This story can give meaning to a gift for someone who enjoys reading about the ancient Church or the city's religious places.

His name and the dates on the reverse

The Saint Julius I mug carries his name, his death in Rome on 12 April 352 and the 12 April commemoration on the reverse. Image and text occupy different sides. A personal note about a journey, a reading or the devotion behind your choice can accompany them. Choose it to celebrate his name or recall Rome through an image connected with its history.

Before ordering, you can rotate the composition in the 3D viewer to examine the image and text from different angles. Selecting Both sides displays two opposing views of the same design, with rotation still available. Choose the handle orientation for a right-handed or left-handed user. The number of mugs you wish to receive is selected separately from the views shown.

We print the composition by sublimation. The printed text is in Spanish. Choose this gift for the name, history or devotion that connects you with its recipient, and accompany it with a few personal words about why you thought of them. Our collection of religious mugs includes other figures and celebrations, so you can dedicate each gift to someone in your family or community.
