In the Catholic religion, it is a piece made of gold or another precious metal, where the consecrated host is placed for adoration by the faithful (believers). Monstrances or ostensoria originated with the institution of the feast of Corpus Christi in the mid-13th century. From the mid-15th century, they took the form of a turret or pointed temple (almost always made of silver) bristling with pinnacles and supported by an artistic base, with a silver or gold lunula or lunette in the center to visibly display the host. During the Renaissance, they were also built in the form of a temple but in the Roman style, and from the late 16th century onwards, the most common radiant sun-shaped monstrances began to appear, which in the 18th century featured circles of angelic heads surrounding the central lunula.
