Summary/Abstract: The research focuses on a group of reliquaries called taxidiot boxes. As part of the donation practice of the Balkans, they functioned as portable small altars in the church rituals of taxidiot monks during the Bulgarian National Revival. The technical processes and technological concepts in the goldsmith’s craft at that time are examined, as well as their application in the objects of ecclesiastical metalwork in Bulgaria.
