I am listing a few incredible relics/reliquaries tonight. Please see the past photo. I gladly combine shipping! This is a 3 part locket in sterling silver. It is engraved on the front with IHS, a cross and 3 lances; the other side is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, a stylized A and M for Ave Maria which sits on top of a crescent moon, which reminds me of Our Lady of Guadalupe. When you remove the cover, the beautiful multi relic reliquary is revealed with 1. S. Joachim P.V.M. (Saint Joachim, Father of the Blessed Virgin Mary,2. S. Joseph, Sp., (Saint Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary,) and 3. S. Annae M.V. M. (Saint Anne, Mother of the Virgin Mary.) It measures 1 1/4 inches long, 3/4 inch wide and 1/3 inch thick. The back of the relic is sealed with an ecclesiastical wax seal and red silk threads, all of which are present, intact and correct. This relic is from Central France, town of Chateauroux. The engraved locket comes with the original box from the jeweler H. Delozme. � The box holds this relic perfectly, closes well with a snap. The outside of the box is a little beat up, it does its job! � The silver locker covers fit together nice and tight, protecting these relics while making this a perfect reliquary to wear around one's neck. Circa 1850-1865.Posted with eBay Mobile
