In this article several silver caskets dating from the second half of 16th century are analysed. They belonged to distinguished members of the nobility and today are located in various Castilian churches. Their shape, origin and iconography are studied as well as the important role that these profane objects played in the Catholic liturgy of the Counter-Reformation Spanish Church.
