"Monstrance, Sterling Silver And Vermeil, Brussels 1880-1900, Enamels And Filigree "
Sumptuous monstrance in the neo-Byzantine style in solid silver and vermeil, enhanced with four polychrome enamel medallions representing the four evangelists. It is in a good state of conservation and still has its lunula. Inspired by objects from the Byzantine era, the goldsmith used techniques such as filigree and enamel. Everything is covered with gilding, slightly worn in places. In the foot is the mark of A. Denis, formerly a merchant of liturgical silverware and church furniture in the rue du Midi in Brussels in the 19th century. In the edge of the foot is struck the far 800% guarantee for solid silver. He weighs more than two kilos.
