This Traditional Religious Souvenir has been Kiln Fired & Hand Gilded by the Benedictine Monks at their now closed Prinknash Pottery in Gloucester. Their motto is " To work is to pray" (Orare est laborare) & in keeping with this moral & ethical sentiment we have secured limited stock of this Historic Pottery with the intention of donating all proceeds rather than benefiting from the opportunity of an "end of era" product. As well as purchasing a Historical Souvenir Mug you will also be directly Donating to the Poor Clare Monastery in Nottingham as all profits will be donated to their religious community. Should you wish to make any further donations or find out more about their community then follow this link: http://www.bulwell-&-bestwood-catholic-churches.org.uk/sisters/sisters.php
