Abbey Treasures

Today was the beginning of the first weekend of Paimpont Abbey's Cultural Season: although we have a new theme each year, it is the Abbey's 'treasure' - normally locked away - which attracts the most interest from our 45,000 annual visitors. Among the many pieces which make up the Abbey's collection, I particularly like this trio of 17C chalices.

Presents best viewed on black!
Nicely composed, Richard. Gorgeous detail, very exquisite pieces!
