Tassilo-style chiseled chalice with Jesus, Mary, St. John and St. Peter, silver-plated, 8 in.
This liturgical chalice is crafted in metal with a silver-plated finish, a gilded inner cup and richly chiseled decorative reliefs.
The broad form is inspired by the Tassilo style and comprises a shaped base, central node and hemispherical cup decorated with continuous ornamental motifs.
The surface displays sacred figures in chiseled medallions portraying Jesus, Mary, St. John and St. Peter, with finely defined drapery and facial details set against a worked contrasting background.
The base bears the effigies of the four Evangelists with their respective symbols (lion, angel, eagle and bull), all integrated within a decoration of interlaces, rosettes and floral motifs in a traditional liturgical style.
The upper cup is smooth inside, while the outer band repeats the figurative decoration and chiseled workmanship in continuity with the stem and base.
Measurements: height 7.9 in; cup diameter 3.9 in.
Made by Italian artisans with meticulous finishing using traditional chasing techniques.
