This glossy ceramic mug features the traditional Latin phrases -- memento mori ("remember you must die") and carpe diem ("seize the day"). Memento mori paintings - featuring a skull and often flowers, became popular in the seventeenth century, in a religious movement that focused on earthly life as a preparation for the everlasting life. This coffee/tea cup is a unique Catholic or Christian expression of living with the end in mind. Perfect for use all-year, it's also especially suited for All Souls Day (Dia de los Muertos), Lent and Advent/the month of November.
A ceramic mug is a thoughtful and practical keepsake gift they'll put to great use. Proclaim your faith boldly and stylishly!
