Abstract
Within the religious silverware of Guipuzcoa there are some peculiar objects: Boxes meant to be hung from the neck which bear inside a container for hosts and another one for the oil used for the anointing of the sick. This article deals with this piece's ethimology, typology and its spreading, and we add to its short catalogue a particularly well-preserved and complete piece which turned up in an auction in Madrid. Its author is Antonio Usarralde, a silversmith from Tolosa who was active during the second half of the 18th century, working as a hallmarker and marker since 1760 and who produced some dozen pieces, out of which three will be introduced in this article.
