Description from the seller
Lot of 3 liturgical objects – Chalice, travel hosts Paten and purification vessel in crystal – 20th century
Interesting and refined lot composed of three liturgical items from different eras, characterized by elegant metalwork, gold- and silver-plated finishes, and evocative devotional details.
1. Liturgical chalice – 1970s–1980s
Elegant chalice with a minimalist line, featuring a flared cup with gold finish, slender stem and circular metal base in silvered metal. The sober and harmonious design reflects the taste of liturgical production in the second half of the 20th century.
Dimensions: height 13.5 cm; cup diameter 8 cm.
Conditions: shows a lesion on the upper rim of the cup, clearly documented in the photographs. Additional signs of age and use.
2. Travel Eucharistic pij(side) – 1970s–1980s
Small travel Eucharistic chalice, circular in shape, made of gold-plated metal, complete with hinged lid and carrying ring.
The upper surface is adorned with an engraving depicting a cross with a blazing Sacred Heart, surrounded by rays, a symbol of Christian devotion.
The interior presents a luminous gold finish.
Dimensions: diameter 5.5 cm; height 2 cm.
Conditions: good overall condition, with slight signs of age and use.
3. Purification vessel – Tuscan area, first quarter of the 20th century (1900–1924)
Refined liturgical purification vessel, made of transparent crystal with mounts in silvered metal.
The vessel features a crystal cup supported by a circular metal foot and an elegant lid topped by a cross adorned with polychrome enamels in blue, white and brown.
The enameled cross is particularly evocative, enhancing the whole and giving it a delicate devotional character.
Dimensions: total height 8 cm; diameter 7.5 cm.
Conditions: oxidation and wear on metal parts, consistent with the period and use. Crystal shows small marks and imperfections documented in the photographs.
Display suggestions
A particularly interesting ensemble for collectors of sacred art and ecclesiastical objects. Ideal for enhancing a antique shop window, a study, a library, or a private collection of devotional items. The contrast between crystal, silvered surfaces and gilding gives the lot a pleasant display charm.
The photographs are an integral part of the description and document details, features, and conservation state of the individual objects.
Shipping with professional careful packaging, carried out according to art-handling and protection procedures, thanks to our specialist Art Logistics certification.
