Description from the seller
Circular silvered-metal reliquary capsule containing a textile relic from the cassock of Saint John-Marie Vianney (1786-1859), famous parish priest of Ars.
The relic is presented at the center of a golden fabric background, surrounded by a handwritten titulus bearing the Latin inscription:
« Ex Veste Talari S. Joh. Bap. Vianney, Cur. Ars »
Meaning: “From the cassock of Saint John-Baptist-Marie Vianney, Curé of Ars.” On the reverse, the reliquary preserves its ecclesiastical seal in red wax, held by four red silk threads, as well as an old label bearing the handwritten note “Bruges, Dioc.” and the number 35830.
Beautiful condition with the old seal present. Some signs of use consistent with its age.
Photos are an integral part of the object descriptions and complete the presentation. Please examine them carefully before any commitment.
The object will be carefully packed and shipped with a tracking number to ensure fast and secure delivery.
