The sole purpose of a chalice is to serve as a container for the Blood of Christ at the holy sacrifice of the Mass and as a vessel for the water and wine prior to the consecration or afterward, to catch any water used to purify the priest's fingers. A chalice must have its inner-plating made of gold, be consecrated by a bishop using holy chrism according to the proper rite, and then be used only in the holy service for which it was consecrated. Before the liturgical reforms that came in the wake of Vatican II, only a cleric was permitted to touch the chalice; laity sacristans had to wear gloves if it fell to them to dress or move the chalice.
