This beautiful handmade Italian Holy Communion pyx / rosary case features a detailed image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, accented with gold- and silver-plated metal and red sparkly enamel. Measuring approximately 6 cm across and 2 cm high, with an inside diameter of 4 cm and a plastic liner, it may be used to carry Holy Communion to the sick (only if approved by your priest) or as a case for a small rosary or jewelry. Please use the pyx for only one purpose to remain respectful of the Eucharist, as some churches do not allow plastic-lined pyxes; in those cases, it serves as a safe and meaningful holder for a rosary or small personal items.
