2006 Documented reliquary theca with relic of the Blessed Elia di San Clemente OCD (Teodora Fracasso)

Round yellow-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing the first-class ex pulvere corporis (of the bodily dust) relic of the Blessed Elia di San Clemente (Teodora Fracasso). The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Eliae a S. Clem. (Blessed Elia di San Clemente / Edith Stein).  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 the Carmelite Order. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed on 18th of March of 2006 (th every day of her beatification) by the Postulator General of the Order responsible for the Causes of Canonization. 

Blessed Elia di San Clemente (born Teodora Fracasso), OCD (†1927) was an Italian Catholic Carmelite nun whos inclinations to become a nun stemmed from her childhood after having had a vision in 1911 in which Thérèse of Lisieux told her that she would become a nun; this realization came a decade later when she entered the convent in her native Bari where she remained for the remainder of her life. Pope Benedict XVI later approved her beatification on 18 March 2006.
