Molina 2722 – The Apostles Chalice & Bowl Paten
Beautifully handcrafted in Spain, the Molina 2722 "The Apostles" Chalice combines traditional Catholic symbolism with exceptional European silversmithing. Featuring engraved representations of the Twelve Apostles, the sacred symbols of the Four Evangelists, and a beautiful silver-plated exterior with a 24-karat gold-lined interior, this distinguished chalice offers a meaningful and reverent vessel for the celebration of the Holy Eucharist.
The chalice is distinguished by its beautifully detailed representations of the Twelve Apostles, arranged around the exterior of the cup. Each figure is incorporated into the decorative metalwork, creating a visual tribute to the men chosen by Jesus Christ to proclaim the Gospel and establish His Church.
The intricate artwork is complemented by a polished silver-plated finish, highlighting the engraved details and traditional character of this exceptional sacred vessel.
The Twelve Apostles & Four Evangelists
The artistic decoration of the Molina 2722 celebrates two of the most important foundations of the Catholic faith.
The Twelve Apostles: The chalice cup features representations of Christ's Apostles, recalling their mission to spread the Gospel and the apostolic foundations of the Church. Their presence on this sacred vessel provides a beautiful connection between the institution of the Holy Eucharist and the celebration of Mass.
The Four Evangelists: The base incorporates traditional symbols representing the four Gospel writers:
- Saint Matthew – The Angel: Symbolizing the humanity and Incarnation of Jesus Christ.
- Saint Mark – The Winged Lion: Representing courage, kingship, and the proclamation of the Gospel.
- Saint Luke – The Winged Ox: Symbolizing sacrifice and Christ's priestly mission.
- Saint John – The Eagle: Representing the divine nature of Christ and the spiritual heights of John's Gospel.
These meaningful religious symbols are beautifully integrated into the decorative base, creating an artistic composition that reflects the history and traditions of the Catholic Church.
Exceptional Spanish Craftsmanship
Manufactured by Molina Artistic Silver of Spain, the 2722 reflects the company's longstanding tradition of fine ecclesiastical metalwork and exceptional attention to detail.
The chalice combines an elegantly proportioned cup with a richly decorated central node and beautifully sculpted base. Its polished silver-plated exterior emphasizes the traditional engravings, while the 24-karat gold-lined interior creates a striking contrast.
The richly detailed node complements the sacred imagery and provides a comfortable point of handling during liturgical celebrations.
