This original 18th century frame is silver gilded over copper. It is elaborately embossed and chiseled. The cartouche is surrounded by rocaille and volute motifs. The Carta is mounted on a wood backing and rests on two linear bases. The silver is lightly tarnished. It is very rare to find the original altar glory scripture still present inside. It explains the part of the Mass being performed.
This is an extremely special museum piece for any ecclesiastical collection.
