Round glass-fronted white-metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) pre-canonization relic of Saint Jeanne Delanoue (Joan of the Cross). The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Jeanne Delanoue (the Blessed Jeanne Delanoue). On the back, under the protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Jean-Camille Costes (†1950) Bishop of Angers (1940-1950). The relic is accompanied by a facsimile of the original matching authentics document issued and signed by Fr. Costes in January of 1948, only two months after the date of her beatification.
