It was discovered in the late XIX Century in Ireland by a small boy that was digging potatoes in Reerasta Rath, near the village of Ardagh. The chalice seemed a treasure that most likely belonged to a rich and well established Irish monastery. Its unique low design with two handles, hand forged construction in solid silver, deeply engraved celtic ornamentation and fire enamelled cobouchons make this chalice the most important and richest of the first Irish Christian objects and clearly one of the finest metal pieces from the VIII Century that has been discovered so far. Our version of the Ardagh chalice is taller and resembles more the shape of a chalice than the original. Like its predecessor, it features a deep celtic engraved design on cup, base and node as well as engraved and fire enameled cabouchons. Ciboria and monstrance available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Original Ardagh chalice from the VIII Century, discovered in 1868 in Reerasta, Ardagh is included in the images\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e----------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The Ardagh”, a version of the original Celtic chalice. 24 Karat goldplate contrasting on antique Silver Plate. Adorned with fire enamel cabouchons and garnet stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Height: 7 3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume: 20oz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 5 1\/8\" Cup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBowl paten is 7\" in diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 24K Gold \u0026amp; Silver-Plated Brass two tone or Brass with inner cup Sterling Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlated in 24K Gold and Sterling Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional Ardagh Items:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/holylandartcompany.com\/2740-the-ardagh-chalice-7-3-4-20oz-multiple-finishes-available\/\"\u003e#2740 Simplified Chalice\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/holylandartcompany.com\/7210-celtic-monstrance-multiple-finishes-available-handmade-in-spain\/\"\u003e#7210 Monstrance\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCiboria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade in Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny Luis Molina piece can be customized, please \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/holylandartcompany.com\/contact-us\/\"\u003econtact us\u003c\/a\u003e with any requests or for more detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luis Molina Acedo, S.A.","offers":[{"title":"Two-Tone Plated Brass","offer_id":52013226295588,"sku":"LMA2728BR","price":8795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Two-Tone Plated Brass with Sterling Silver Cup","offer_id":52013226328356,"sku":"LMA2728TT","price":9340.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/0920\/8612\/files\/2728_the_ardagh_chalice__18586_92ffea80-41ce-46b2-801d-bcbcf19f36cb.jpg?v=1770752049","url":"https:\/\/wholesalechurchsupply.com\/products\/lma2728br-luis-molina-acedo-sa","provider":"Holy Land Art Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
