Chalice with Passion of Christ symbols, bicoloured brass, 11 in.
This chalice is made of bicoloured brass by an Italian firm and is distinguished by rich decorative references to the Passion of Christ.
The base alternates symbols such as the cross, the inscription IHS and a vestment, together with embossed angel faces that enrich the piece.
The central node features slightly projecting decorative motifs designed to provide a more secure grip and is adorned with symbolic elements: hammer, tongs, jug and the crown of thorns.
The cup repeats the same subjects as the base, emphasised by the contrast with the polished brass finish; among these symbols appears also the face of Christ, details that evoke the symbolic dignity of the celebration.
