Catholic Chalice and ciborium with hand-chiseled cup and base bearing PAX and IHS motifs. Sacred vessel set composed of a church chalice and a ciborium, crafted in Italy from silver-plated brass and finished with elegant gilded brass details. Both pieces are hand-chiseled, a feature that lends depth and artisanal value to each element. The base alternates linear decorations with finely engraved PAX and IHS symbols. The knot, in smooth gilded brass, creates a pleasing chromatic contrast with the silver-plated surfaces. The church chalice cup is enriched with grape-leaf motifs and ornamental friezes, traditional symbols of the Eucharistic liturgy. The ciborium displays chiseled lines on the cup and the same grape-leaf and frieze decoration on the lid, producing visual harmony between the two pieces; the lid is completed by a gilded fish finial, an additional symbolic reference to the Christian tradition. Chalice dimensions: 21 cm height, 10 cm cup diameter. Ciborium dimensions: 22.5 cm height, 12 cm cup diameter. Care instructions: use a soft, dry cloth and avoid abrasive products to preserve the brilliance of the silver-plated and gilded brass and the definition of the chiseled motifs.
