Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to provide an overview of the liturgical objects from the churches in Karlovo, Kalofer, and Sopot (central southern Bulgaria). Most of these artifacts are known only from archival documentation. This is the first time that photographs of some of these items have been published, their donation inscriptions have been transcribed, and their place of manufacture has been identified. The liturgical objects presented include examples of the production from the silversmiths’ workshops in Karlovo, as well as imported objects from Romania and Russia.
