Oval glass-fronted silver pendant reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of St. Joachim of Nazareth. A sizable relic is affixed to a gilt-paper starburst on a ground of salmon-colored silk, surrounded by silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a fancy manuscript cedula label as Ex Oss. S. Joachim, Pat. B.M.V. (of the bone of St. Joachim Father of the Blessed Virgin Mary). On the back, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Francesco Maria Ginori (†1775), Bishop of Fiesole, Italy (1736–1775).
