"19th Cent. Reliquary 1 St Class Relic St. Aloysius De Gonzaga + Wax Seal"

This remarkable 19th-century reliquary in the shape of sunrays holds a 1 st Class Holy Relic of:

Saint Aloysius de Gonzaga – Confessor

Was an Italian aristocrat who became a member of the Society of Jesus. While still a student at the Roman College, he died as a result of caring for the victims of a serious epidemic. He was beatified in 1605 and canonized in 1726.

Reliquary description

The relics are safely kept under a glass resting on a golden silk background. The reliquary is itself encased in a gilt brass frame in the shape of sunrays similar to the ones you would find in a monstrance, probably where this came from.

At the back of the reliquary, we find the Episcopal’ s wax seal of an Archbishop holding the threads together and guaranteeing the authenticity of this holy relic.

Condition

Great condition. No damage or missing parts. The silk threads and wax seal are intact and in their place. Beautiful patina.
