Small round glass-fronted reliquary theca held in a clam-shaped silver pendant housing the first-class ex corporis (of the body) relic of the Saint Marie-Marguerite d'Youville. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in French on a typeset cedula label as Youville Ch. On the back, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Cardinal Jean-Claude Turcotte, the Archbishop of Montreal (1990-2012). The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued on December 9, 1990 (the very day of her canonization) by Andre Cimichella, the Auxiliary bishop of Montreal.
