Gold ornaments are distributed across the surface of the fabric and subtly complement the central embroidery.

The round form allows the fabric to drape softly and evenly around the ciborium. The result is an elegant, harmonious covering for the liturgical vessel. Delicate gold ornamentation finishes the edge. It harmonizes with the embroidery and emphasizes the solemn character of the piece.

Liturgical use
