The base is six-lobed, with four fields featuring images of Christ in the tomb, St. Peter, St. Paul, and Mary with the Child, dated 1515, and the remaining two fields with tracery motifs. The shaft is hexagonal. The node is shaped like a flattened sphere with six rhomboidal bosses, with the inscription “IHESVS” below it and “MARIAH” above it.
The smooth bowl is set in a basket engraved with tracery motifs, topped with a floral lace. The chalice is attributed to Andreas Heidecker by researchers based on its similarity to other marked chalices by this author from Wschowa and Gliwice.
