Description from the seller
Relic of Saint Gabriel of the Addolorata presented in a round reliquary case of silvered metal with a red textile-backed interior, with a handwritten label “S. Gabrielis”
Accompanied by its authentic original dated Rome, April 20, 1921, issued by the Congregation of the Passionists and signed by the Superior General, with a dry seal.
Saint Gabriel of the Addolorata (1838–1862) was an Italian Passionist religious, famous for his intense devotion to the Virgin of Sorrows. He died very young and quickly became a major figure of popular piety, and was canonized in 1920. He is today regarded as a model of purity and fervor for Catholic youth.
Generally good overall condition with signs of wear and patina from use.
Provenance: former private collection.
The photos are an integral part of the description of the objects and complement its presentation. They allow the condition and features to be appreciated. Please examine them carefully before any commitment.
