The image shows an ornate chalice with a lid, standing on a square base. The chalice has a silver-tone metallic finish with decorative elements. The main body appears to be embossed or engraved, featuring inscriptions and intricate patterns that are accentuated with colored enamels and possibly semiprecious stones in blue and green hues. Around the upper part of the chalice, beneath the lid, there is a decorative band with embedded colored stones and enamel work. This band features shield-like emblems separated by patterns of leaves or vines. The lid of the chalice is topped with a finial that resembles a stylized bird with a tail, seemingly made of two different types of metal, giving it a two-tone effect. The stem of the chalice is relatively plain compared to the body and base, connecting to a square, ornamental base that mimics the colors and decorations of the upper band. The base has four panels filled with colorful enamel work enclosed within a floral or foliage motif. Judging by the decorative elements and inscriptions, which look like they could be Latin, this chalice might have a religious significance or could be used for ceremonial purposes.
