Oval glass-fronted silvered brass pendant reliquary theca housing the second-class ex Soleo Cannabina (of a hemp shoe-sole) relic of Saint Teresa of Ávila. A substantial relic is affixed to the center of the theca surrounded by gilt silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as Ex Soleo Cannbina // S. theresiae Jesu. V. C. (from the hemp shoe sole of Saint Teresa of Jesus, Virgin & Carmelite). 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 Monsignor Carlo Maria Francesco Caselli O.S.M. (†1828), Archbishop of Parma (1804–1828). The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed by the order of Cardinal Caselli in 1814.
