A Mid-Size Silver Plated Bowl for Baptism and the Lavabo Rite
The Baptismal or Lavabo Bowl by Koley's Inc. is a well-proportioned silver plated vessel designed for two distinct liturgical purposes: the pouring of water during the Rite of Baptism, and the lavabo, the ceremonial washing of the celebrant's hands during Mass. At 9 inches in diameter, this bowl offers generous capacity in a size that works well across a broad range of parish and chapel settings, from smaller oratories to active parish churches.
The silver plated finish gives this bowl a clean, timeless appearance that complements a wide variety of sanctuary appointments. It is a practical, dignified choice for communities that prefer a classic silver tone in their liturgical vessels.
