Reliquary - Metal

Rare and ancient reliquary — Relics of the Crèche and the Sepulchre of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Exceptional ancient reliquary from the 19th century, containing two precious relics identified by their original Latin labels: • Upper inscription: “Presep D.N.J.C.” (Presepio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi — Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ) • Lower inscription: “ex Sepulc D.N.J.C.” (ex Sepulchro Domini Nostri Jesu Christi — from the Sepulchre of Our Lord Jesus Christ) The object is presented in a yellow-metal medallion and preserves all its authentic period character, with fragments and its original dust sealed under glass. The top fragment is damaged but still present in the sealed medallion. On the back, the red wax seal of authenticity bearing a heraldic shield surmounted by a crown is perfectly preserved. • Dimensions: approximately 3 cm × 2 cm • Condition: Good original condition, patina and period dust preserved, wax seal intact, one relic detached from its mount. A remarkable collectible for enthusiasts of sacred art and exceptional religious objects.
