Petition dish, possibly German; 16th century. Gilt and embossed bronze. It has faults and flaws. Measurements: 37 cm. diameter. Plate in gilt bronze with embossed decoration on its seat based on grapes and vine leaves placed in an ordered composition, around which a legend develops in the form of a border. The petition plate was a common object in the development of the liturgy, since during a moment of the mass, the faithful are shown this object with the intention of offering the possibility of making a donation.
