| This polygonal stage overhangs the altar and thus serves as a monumental ciborium for liturgical activity below. |
| If a ciborium is to be consecrated, it is now placed on the upper left portion of the corporal. |
| The altar was wholly of gold, and its ciborium and the iconastasis were of silver. |
| If the ciborium is in the tabernacle, place the chalice and paten to the left. |
| Take out the ciborium, genuflecting after you have opened the tabernacle door. |
| In the floor in front of the altar are also several pieces of ninth-century ciborium heads, and bits of twelfth-century carving. |
