Description from the seller
Liturgical chalice in silver with paten – Spain, ca. 1940–1950
Liturgical chalice accompanied by its paten, made in silver, in a traditional ecclesiastical style, probably of Spanish origin (mid-20th century).
The chalice features a bell-shaped cup with raised vegetal decoration (acanthus leaves), a cubic central knot with floral motifs, and a broad, richly ornamented base. It is a misa (mass) chalice intended for liturgical use.
The paten, also in silver, is intended for holding the host (Body of Christ).
The set is presented with its original transport case.
