Description from the seller
Neo-Gothic Chalice – Demarquet Frères – Paris, circa 1884 – With original certificate of consecration and antique case
Elegant French Neo-Gothic liturgical chalice, attributed to the Parisian silversmiths Demarquet Frères (1868–1890).
The flared cup is made of Minerva-marked 950/1000 silver, while the stem and circular foot are silver-plated metal.
The knop features rich raised floral decoration, enhanced with gilt details.
The foot is adorned with an applied blue enamel cross, centered with a small cabochon, and accented by a delicate beaded border.
This chalice comes with its original certificate of consecration, dated October 3, 1884, issued by the Archdiocese of Paris.
This historical document attests to its consecration by the Archbishop of Paris at the time, Cardinal Joseph-Hippolyte Guibert (1802–1886). It bears the seal of the archdiocese and the secretary’s signature.
The set is kept in its original transport case, lined with green velvet.
Good overall condition, with signs of use and age. The case and document show signs of wear over time.
A fine example of 19th-century French religious silverwork, particularly interesting because its certificate of consecration has been preserved with the chalice.
The photographs form an integral part of the description and complement the presentation of the objects. They allow you to assess their condition and characteristics. Please examine them carefully before making any commitment.
The item will be carefully packed and shipped with a tracking number to ensure fast and secure delivery.
