Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo mug

The Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo mug remembers an archbishop of Lima whose work left an important mark on the history of the Church in Peru. It can be a gift for someone named Turibius, someone who shares his devotion or a person interested in his pastoral work. The image and the milestones on the reverse dedicate the gift to this particular story.

Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo mug with an episcopal image

The painting depicts him kneeling in red episcopal vestments. His prayerful posture accompanies the memory of a life of pastoral visits and care for communities. Choose this composition for the image itself or for the recipient's connection with Peru and its religious tradition.

Turibius was born in Mayorga in 1538 and trained in law before his episcopal appointment. He arrived in Peru in 1581 and travelled throughout his extensive diocese. His work included councils, clergy formation and attention to the languages of communities, with a catechism in Spanish, Quechua and Aymara. This wish to make teaching accessible can give meaning to a gift for someone who shares the faith with others.

Milestones of his life and recognition

The Saint Turibius of Mogrovejo mug includes his birth in Mayorga in 1538 and death in Zaña in 1606. The reverse also records beatification in 1679, canonisation in 1726 and the 23 March commemoration. The two recognitions are distinguished and accompany his name. You can choose it for his feast, to thank someone for their companionship or to share a devotion.

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.
