Description from the seller

Silver holy-water sprinkler — France, 19th century

Beautiful solid-silver liturgical aspergillum, French work from the 19th century.
Cylindrical model with lightly faceted faces, ending in a perforated spherical head that allows the distribution of holy water.

The body is adorned with a raised cross in relief, featuring a trilobed Gothic-inspired design, finely cut.
Functional screw system, with the original screw thread well preserved.

Solid silver, fineness 950/1000 - visible assay marks

Overall good condition. Normal signs of liturgical use: micro-scratches, minor pinpoint oxidation visible on the pommel. No deformation. The threads are clean and functional.

An authentic devotional object, intended for ritual sprinkling during blessings.
