At 8.5 × 11.5 cm, the bowl is one of the compact variants in our collection, making it easy to handle for godparents and clergy. 925 sterling silver, mirror-polished, with a 925 hallmark on the back. Made in Italy according to European silver tradition — clean lines, no embellishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Cross as a Baptismal Symbol\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ecross\u003c\/strong\u003e is the central symbol of Christianity. In the baptismal ceremony, the child is sealed with the sign of the cross — on the forehead, often also on the chest. A baptismal bowl with a cross motif immediately brings this sign into the ceremony and makes it tangible. Those who consciously want to prioritize the cross over the shell shape will choose this model — equally suitable for traditional Catholic baptisms and Evangelical-Reformed ceremonies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor what occasion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMain occasion: \u003cstrong\u003ebaptism\u003c\/strong\u003e — for girls as well as boys.
