From museum plaque description: "Chalice and Paten, about 1450-80; Gilt-silver and filigree enamel; Hungary, Budapest?; John L. Severance Fund 1990.3.1-2. The chalice and paten - the most important of all liturgical vessels - were used at the altar by the priest for the consecration of the Eucharistic bread and wine during the celebration of the Mass. This chalice survives with its original paten. The form of the chalice evolved over the centuries; late gothic chalices, like this one, gradually developed angular or faced knops (ornamental knobs specific to chalices), generally hexagonal, with lobed feet. This sublime example is decorated with filigree enamel consisting of twisted gold wire forming a floral design, which in turn is filled with colorful glass pastes. Gemstones are added for further embellishment."
