1983 Documented reliquary theca with relic of the Blessed Maria Gabriella (of Unity) Sagheddu

Round glass-fronted white-metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex carnus  (of the flesh) relic of the Blessed Maria Gabriella Sagheddu. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on typeset cedula label as B.M. Gabriela // ex corp. ( of the body of the Blessed Maria Gabriella).  On the back, under the protective cap, the theca is secured by a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Postulator General of the  Order of Cistercians. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued by the Order on 25 January 1983, on the very day after her beatification. 

Saint Maria Sagheddu (†1939) - in religious Maria Gabriella - was an Italian Catholic professed religious and a professed member from the Trappists. Sagheddu had an intense spiritual devotion to ecumenism - something for which she had offered her life - since she desired that all would become one in Jesus Christ. Her childhood saw her noted as stubborn and obstinate though her increased activeness in teaching catechism and joining Azione Cattolica saw those qualities melt and become gentleness and careful attentiveness. Sagheddu was beatified in Rome on 25 January 1983 by Pope John Paul II and her feastday is celebrated on 22 April.
