Lunette (draft)
[edit](Introduction)
[edit]A lunette, also referred to as a luna[1] or a lunula[2], is an liturgical item used by in the Catholic Church for the exposition of the Host.[3]
Description
[edit]The lunette can take various forms. One is that of a flat, circular container composed of a ring of metal (usually lined with gold) faced with a glass or crystal disc,[Note 1] which create a round, flat, enclosure for the Eucharistic Host.[2] This is used for exposition and Benediction services.[4]
Another form is that of a crescent- or ring-shaped clip made of gold, often on a small stand, serving to hold the Host upright.[5][6] This is often kept in another object, sometimes called a lunette or lunula case, which is usually a round box often on a small stand, serving to hold the Host upright.[7] This case is also known as a custodia [8]
The lunette, containing the consecrated Host, is placed in the centre of a vessel known as a monstrance, or ostensory,[1] which can be mounted or carried within the church.[9]
The lunette resembles another liturgical object, the pyx or carrying case, but their functions are distinct; the pyx serves to transport the Host outside the church in order to take communion to an alternate venue,[10] while the lunette remains within the church and serves to display the Host to onlookers.
All of these objects, whenever they contain a consecrated host, are normally kept within the church tabernacle when they are not in use. The tabernacle may be behind the main altar, at a side altar, or within a special Eucharistic chapel.
Footnotes
[edit]- ^ This form of lunette commonly has glass both front and back (ref CE), though a statement in 1871 by the Sacred Congregation of Rites decreed that the lunette should have a metal back, with glass at the front only.(walsh).
