Liturgical use
The jug and plates are the proper instruments of the baptismal rite: the jug holds the blessed water to be poured over the head of the candidate, while the plates collect the water during the infusion. The iconography of the drinking deer — drawn from Psalm 42 ("As the deer longs for running streams") — connects the liturgical gesture to the candidate's longing for God, making this set particularly suited to churches that nurture catechesis through the beauty of sacred signs.
Craftsmanship
The hand-chiselling ensures a sculptural rendering of the biblical scene. The availability in silver-plated or gold-plated finish allows the set to be coordinated with the other furnishings of the baptistery chapel.
