Holy Land work
A cross in glory with mother-of-pearl marquetry covering the wood, enthroned at the center of a gilded composition with essentially floral motifs.
As many relics as stations of the Passion are present, from Saint Clare, Saint Theresa, Saint Felicity - Martyr, Saint Thecla - Virgin and Martyr, Saint Agnes, Saint Anne, Saint Theodore, Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Vincent de Paul, Saint Peter the Apostle, Saint Theodore, Saint Francis Xavier, Notre Dame de Lorette, etc.
On the back - and this is the special feature of our reliquary - is the second side of our cross, decorated with 14 stations containing small stones. Two of the stations, small reliquary niche covers, are missing.
Dimensions 23 cm by 19 cm.
Good condition, but a few missing pieces.
