Description

Also known as the aspergillum, it is a stick-shaped implement with holes in it to dip into the aspersory (acetre) and catch the Holy Water for sprinkling the people and things during blessing rituals.

This item is part of Museo de la Salle’s Santos Joven Panlilio collection which boasts of antique turn-of-the-century furniture and decorative furnishings from family’s ancestral home in Bacolor, Pampanga. Some pieces were collected through the years by art connoisseur, antique collector and interior designer Jose Ma. Ricardo Panlilio, the museum’s founding director.
