Gilles Beaugrand Gold and Silver Studio
CHALICES
The beauty of a Beaugrand chalice is determined by integrity
of form, richness of material, and honesty and care in fabrication. Elegant
workmanship and meticulous attention to detail reveal the hand-stamp of
the artist. It is the rare combination of such qualities which has won
the goldsmith an international reputation for excellence.
Each chalice which leaves our studios is a work of art,
handcrafted individually on demand, following an original workshop drawing
or according to a design realized in collaboration with the owner. Attentive
consideration to the particular wishes and needs of each client ensures
an original and personalized creation, and lasting satisfaction.
In addition to the undisputed beauty and value of a Beaugrand
chalice is the exceptional quality of Beaugrand service. Well-known for
our personal and accomodating approach, we meet the varied needs of our
clients with singular care and style.
A RICH COLLECTION
The extensive portfolio of Beaugrand chalice designs
embraces every style: sober roman, flamboyant gothic, whimsical baroque,
elegant art-deco and classic contemporary. We present here only a few
pieces from our magnificent collection of gold and silver designs. To
see more examples of beautiful Beaugrand creations, ask for our colour
brochure.
Each Beaugrand chalice is supplied with:
- a sterling silver cup.
- one of the three standard patens.
- a 100-letter inscription under the base of the chalice.
- soft cloth bags to protect the chalice and paten.
- a velvet-lined carrying case.
- all shipping, customs and delivery costs anywhere in North America.
Ownership of a Beaugrand chalice begins with an email, a
phone call, a letter or fax or a visit to the Beaugrand studio. It continues with careful communication, to specify and
clarify your wishes and expectations. This is followed by our definitive design proposal,
including a precise drawing, detailed description, cost and estimated
delivery date. The process concludes with delivery to your doorstep.
A WEALTH OF CHOICE
You may select one of the chalices shown here or choose
from our extensive collection of studio designs. There is also the possibility of modifying or adapting
one of our existing drawings. Alternatively, you may have a chalice made from a new
design proposed by our artist or based on your own original idea. This affords the opportunity to incorporate a particular
motif or theme in the decoration.
Whichever option you favour, you can rely on our expert
team to help you make creative decisions, and to ensure the smooth unfolding
of your project.
ARCHIVES
Complete details pertaing to each article are stored in
our archives, allowing us to furnish - at any time - evaluations for

or reproduced.
MORE THAN CHALICES
We do a great variety of work in precious metals,
including ciboria, pixes, episcopal croziers and rings, pectoral crosses,
ewers, etc.
REPAIR AND RESTORATION
The Beaugrand Studio is proud of its reputation for
elegant creations in precious metals; but we don't just make things
beautiful, we keep them beautiful. The same skill and integrity which is brought to the
fabrication of a new work is exercised also in the repair and refurbishing
of older pieces.
In our workshop, fine gold and silver articles which have
become worn or damaged are given new life and restored to their original
beauty.
