"Reliquary Case With 14 Relics Of Saints"

A precious late 19th or early 20th century reliquary case (estimated between 1870 and 1920), made of glass with finely crafted paper decorations. This item holds 14 relics belonging to saints and blessed figures, along with a central engraving of Mater Salvatoris, featuring the inscription "Verlag von Gebr. C. u. N. Benziger in Einsiedeln", linking it to the historic Swiss publishing house specialized in devotional prints.

This particular selection of relics suggests an Italian, French, or Swiss origin, possibly connected to a convent, monastery, or local church.
Condition: Good condition, with age-related wear enhancing its historical and spiritual value.

Complete list of included relics:

  • Blessed Leonardo da Porto Maurizio – Franciscan preacher and promoter of the Way of the Cross, patron of missionaries.
  • Saint Andrew the Apostle – One of Christ’s twelve apostles, venerated throughout the Christian world.
  • Saint Costanza Martyr – A martyr from early Christian tradition.
  • Blessed Margaret Mary Alacoque – French mystic who spread devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
  • Saint John Francis Fremiot (François de Chantal) – Co-founder of the Order of the Visitation alongside Saint Francis de Sales.
  • Saint Catherine of Genoa – Mystic and advocate for spiritual renewal, known for her visions of Purgatory.
  • Saint Innocenzia Martyr – Early Christian martyr.
  • Blessed Mary of the Angels – Name associated with various blessed figures, including Maria degli Angeli Monticelli, an Italian Carmelite nun.
  • Saint Joseph, Spouse of the Virgin Mary – Protector of the Church and Christian families.
  • Ex Sepulchro Beatae Mariae Virginis – A relic linked to Marian devotion, likely from a sacred site dedicated to the Virgin.
  • Saint Philip Benizi – Superior General of the Servite Order, known for his humility.
  • Blessed Ottaviano, Bishop and Confessor
  • Saint Costanzo Martyr – Patron of Perugia, venerated for his miracles.
  • Saint Camillus de Lellis – Founder of the Camillians, patron of the sick and healthcare workers.
The Mater Salvatoris holy card is an original print from Gebr. C. u. N. Benziger, a Swiss publishing house active in producing devotional images during the 19th and 20th centuries. The assembly of relics and their variety indicate a liturgical devotional object, likely preserved in a monastery or church. The inclusion of Marian relics (Ex Sepulchro B.M.V.) adds spiritual significance, being directly linked to the Virgin Mary. The paper decorations, typical of 19th-century reliquary cases, showcase the refined craftsmanship of the era.
