In addition, the Museum has a prestigious collection of silverware and works of goldsmith's art of Neapolitan and Sicilian origin dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries: in particular, there are valuable pieces of a sacred nature, such as a reliquary casket decorated with aedicules containing the Crucifixion and Saints; there is also a silver monstrance forged by Filippo Juvarra in 1770 and a 17th-century ivory casket.
