These objects, also known as peristeria, are shaped like a dove and were intended to store the Consecrated Host. They are made up of a central body that includes a cavity in the upper part to store the Sacred Form, to which independent pieces are added such as the wings, tail, beak and legs. The main body used to be decorated with chisels with motifs that simulate the plumage of this bird. The wings and tail could have decorative enamel motifs created using the technique known as champlevé in which a remarkably rich color palette could be seen.
