    ID Please

    This piece was sold to me as a chalice. I cant find a head. Its mounted on a really jagged surface of rock. I tried to get a good pic. Is it a chalice? If so any name? It has great color. The piece in the center of the image. Taken through my costa del mar 580g sunglasses. alt="">
