Magnificent Rare Miniature Set of Religious Church Objects
This exquisite collection features 14 rare miniature liturgical items used in Catholic ceremonial rituals. Originally crafted in Germany, this set includes:
- Various miniature pieces representing ancient liturgical objects: a crucifix, a monstrance, four candles, cruets for water and wine, a chalice, ciborium, and paten, as well as two miniature framed altarpieces (Nativity and Sacred Heart)
- The tallest piece, the Monstrance, measures 6.5 inches (16.5 cm)
- Made of tin and pewter, cardboard
Historically, these miniature sets were utilized by teachers to educate children about religion in schools and to train young priests.
Perfect to teach children about the traditional Latin Mass (though the metal of the pieces is quite malleable, so caution is advised) or as the spectacular centerpiece of a home altar.
Condition:
- Good condition considering its age
- The loop of the bell is broken (please refer to photos for details)
This beautiful collector's item is a wonderful piece of religious heritage, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts of religious artifacts. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a piece of history!
