Hi,
Franz Xavier Dutzenberg was a silversmith in Krefeld, Germany, founded 1849. Spelling Crefeld on your chalice was used before 1925.
Those are vessels for holy communion; paten and chalice (a plate used for holding the bread during the Eucharist and sometimes as a cover for the chalice.)
Regards

Thank you!
Why is the papal symbol on it?
And why can't I find a similar item from the manufacturer?

The firm made items for the church, including silver and textile, as well as secular items made of other metals.
I am not familiar with their production linked to catholic church and the Vatican.
Hopefully, somebody will shed more light.
Not everything we Google for is available online right now.

It's also weird that it's not Hallmarks.
