1989 Vatican-documented reliquary theca with relics St. Dymphna, Patron of depression, anxiety, & sleep disorders

Round yellow-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing first-class ex Ossibus  (of the bone) relic of Saint Martyress Dymphna. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on typeset cedula label as S. Dumphnae V. M.  (Saint Dymphna, Virgin & Martyr).  On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Petrus Canisius Jean van Lierde, O.S.A. (†1995), the Titular Bishop of Parphyrion, in his capacity of the Vicar General for the Vatican City State. The relic is accompanied by an original matching authentics document issued and sealed in 1989 by Fr. van Lierde. 

Saint Dymphna is a 7th-century Christian saint honored in Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions who was murdered by her father for her refusal (and for it, her beheading) to allow her father to have an incestuous relationship with her. St. Dymphna is the patron saint of runaways, mental disorders, neurological disorders, victims of incest, victims of sexual assault, depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders.
