Saint Peter († between AD 64 and 68), was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ, leaders of the early Christian Church. He is also venerated as the "Apostle of the Apostles" and the first pope of the Roman Catholic Church, ordained by Jesus in the "Rock of My Church" dialogue in Matthew 16:18. Christian churches all venerate Peter as a major saint and associate him with founding the Church of Antioch and later the Church in Rome.

Round white-metal reliquary theca housing extremely rare precious relic of the wood from the Altar, Saint Peter, the Apostle preached from during his lifetime. A relic is affixed to a paper starburst on the red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as Ex Altari Ligneo S. Petri Apostoli. (of the wood of the Altar of the Saint Peter, the Apostle). 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 Archbishop Washington Cruz C.P. (born 25 May 1946) Archbishop of Goiânia, Brazil. The theca is accompanied by the matching authentics document issued and signed by Monsignor Cruz on June 29th, 2004, the day of the liturgical Feast of Saints Peter and Paul.
This item is of extreme rarity and is appropriate for private and public veneration. A photograph of the document is available upon request.
