(2270) Saint Remy Chalice and Paten

Features
Widely known as the "St. Remy", the chalice of St. Remigius is probably the most beautiful and treasured symbol of a Christian sacred vessel. Its sheer beauty, magnificent craftsmanship and interesting history make it a legend in its own right.

St. Remigius, Apostle of the Franks and Archbishop of Reims, France, during the VI Century was a very influential man who converted the Franks to Christianity. The Franks had been mainly warriors until then and had robbed or destroyed many of the sacred vessels of the Churches of the era. It is said that, after the Franks converted to Christianity, the chalice of St. Remigius was cut from the gold of the celebrated vase of the Church of Soissons, previously kept since then in the treasury of the Cathedral of Reims, being even used by the Kings of France to communicate under the species of wine at the end of the Coronation ceremonies.

This masterpiece is an accurate replica of the original twelfth century St. Remy Chalice, housed in the Cathedral of Reims in France. It is completely handmade in 925 sterling silver goldplate. Attractive hand chased outer cup and base with open arch design exposing the brightly polished inner cup and base. Set with 32 gemuine stones (Amethysts, Lapis Lazulis, Green Venturines and Garnets) as well as adorned with cloisonné fire enamel, the St. Remy chalice is a superb blend of beauty, quality and dignity of design. Matching ciborium, open ciborium, intinction set, cruets set and monstrance available.
