This beautiful gold plated pyx is a highly symbolic and practical vessel, essential for administering Holy Communion outside of Mass. It is elegantly adorned with the sacred IHS Engraving (the Christogram), underscoring the dignity of the Precious Body of Christ it is designed to safely transport. Crafted with a brilliant gold plate finish, the pyx offers a substantial capacity for 16 Hosts, making it ideal for covering multiple pastoral visits. Host capacity is based on 1 ⅜” hosts. By canon law all PYX are required to be gold plated. The interior features a crucial High Polish Interior for easy cleaning and maintenance, ensuring the utmost reverence and hygiene for the consecrated elements.
