eo-Baroque silver and vermeil chalice - Jourdain Louis Laurent (1804 - 1866) - Namur - Belgium The flared bowl, gilded both inside and out, rests on a pierced silver openwork basket, finely decorated with foliage and scrollwork. The stem features a prominent knop with raised lobed decoration, extending down to a richly moulded circular foot adorned with fluting, gadrooning and architectural motifs. The piece strikes a fine balance between the gleam of the vermeil and the brilliance of the silver, characteristic of 19th-century ecclesiastical silverwork. Hallmarks: two visible marks on the bowl, one main mark in a cartouche and a second, smaller mark. Their precise attribution remains to be determined. Condition: in good overall condition, with slight signs of use, a few fine scratches and some localised wear to the gilding, consistent with the object's age. A fine piece of antique ecclesiastical silverwork, noteworthy both for its decorative quality and its craftsmanship in silver and vermeil.
