Saints Simon and Jude the Apostles mug

The feast on 28 October brings together two apostles whom many families remember with particular affection. The Saints Simon and Jude mug can accompany that celebration or become a gift for someone who bears their names. The design combines both names with a painting of Saint Simon, to remember their shared feast over breakfast or during a quiet pause.

A painting of Simon for the feast of both apostles

The chosen image is Saint Simon the Apostle by Jusepe de Ribera. It shows Simon with a beard, a brown tunic and a red cloak, holding a book and a saw. The painting depicts Simon; the reverse carries «Santos Simón y Judas, apóstoles», and records the 28 October commemoration.

Both belong to the group of the Twelve called by Jesus. Their names appear in the New Testament accounts, and Christian tradition celebrates them together. This Saints Simon and Jude mug can provide a starting point for recalling that story with a child, a grandchild or someone with whom you share your faith.

Choose the layout and look at the complete composition

You can rotate the mug in the 3D viewer to check the painting and text. The “Both sides” option shows two opposing views of the same design, one beside the other. This makes it simple to check the name and date while still seeing the image. The quantity you wish to buy is selected separately.

The right- or left-handed layout lets you adapt the arrangement to the recipient. The composition is already prepared: you do not have to copy the names or enter the feast date. We print the design using sublimation after you have checked your selection. The printed text is in Spanish.

Give the Saints Simon and Jude mug for their celebration, as a thank-you to someone close or for the pleasure of sharing a devotion. If you are looking for another name to complete several gifts, browse our collection of religious mugs and choose each mug separately.
