Cumdach of the Stowe Missal (Ireland, 1025-1052) Wood, brass, silver gilt, glass cabochons;
The Department of Medieval Art and The Cloisters has in its collection a curious early 20th-century reproduction of the 11th-century Cumdach of the Stowe Missal. A cumdach, or book shrine, is an Irish form of reliquary case made for books associated with important religious figures. Only five early examples of cumdachs exist.
Held by The Metropolitan Museum of Art
