The vermeil chalice and paten bear the Minerva hallmark and the goldsmith’s master’s mark.
The chalice, with its chased decoration, bears the Latin inscription “Dominus meus et Deus meus” at its base. “My Lord and my God” are the words spoken by Saint Thomas in the Gospel according to John (John 20:28) when he recognized the risen Christ.
The faithful often recite this prayer in a low voice during the elevation of the host and the chalice.
The high-quality paten features a central depiction of the Last Supper.
A piece crafted by the Parisian firm TRIOULLIER Frères, dating from the late 19th century.
