London, 1735 Charles Kandler
A chalice and paten were used during the Mass to serve the consecrated wine and bread. These ones are possibly the work of Charles Kandler, a leading London goldsmith who came originally from Dresden.
The applied ornament on the chalice includes cherubs with the Instruments of the Passion (objects associated with Christ’s suffering and Crucifixion). The paten is engraved with the sacred monogram ‘IHS’ (a contraction of the name Jesus Christ in Greek).
