An engraved silver plate features the Crucifixion at its center, with Christ on the cross flanked by two women and St. John. Behind them, a cityscape and clouds fill the background, while a skull within a circle sits at the base. The wide rim is decorated with Cyrillic inscriptions and floral motifs. Small hallmarks are stamped at the bottom of the polished surface, which highlights the fine detail of the central scene.
