Object description :

"Monstrance Neo-gothic Reliquary With Three Cylinders – 19th Century"

This is an unusual reliquary in both its form and its content. It indeed accommodates, in each glass cylinder, notable relics of Saint Déodat, bishop, as indicated by the embroidered miter overhanging the central relic.
The gilded brass reliquary rests on a so-called flattened foot cut into four regular lobes on which floral motifs are engraved.
The bow is decorated with four colored cabochons. Dimensions of 48 cm high by 21 cm wide.
Good condition, note a crack on the central cylinder.
