Open Ciborium Gothic Style

The role of the ciborium is to house a collection of host wafers for use during the Mass service. The magnificent Gothic Style Open Ciborium from Matthew F. Sheehan has a traditional style that's hard to resist. The open dish features a stunning depiction of Our Lord with the Twelve Apostles along the sides of the cup with the Four Evangelists on the chapel style node. The exterior of the ciborium is textured due to the intense ornamentation. While the lip of the vessel as well as the interior are perfectly smooth and polished to protect the integrity of the communion wafers. This ciborium is made of sterling silver and is large enough to hold approximately 370 wafers.

The dish is slightly elevated to make it stand out on the altar and to make retrieving wafers easier for the clergy member presiding over the services. The Open Ciborium offers the best in convenience and style by removing the traditional lid element of the vessel and replacing it with an easy-to-access open design. This breathtaking work of art is made in Spain by the renowned Artistic Silver company, one of the leading manufacturers of church goods in the world.
