The bronze strainer in the form of a bowl with the rim folded outwards, perforated dots in formation depicting a cross at the base, with letters C T A Ω, with a band above. The letter A-Alpha is the first letter in the Greek alphabet and Ω-Omega is the last. Together these two letters form a monogram or symbol for one of the names of Jesus Christ, meaning "the Beginning and the End." The term is found in Revelation 1:8: "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."
