Rare round white-metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of a Maronite Saint Rafqa Pietra Chobok. A relic is affixed to a petalled-flower-shaped paper on a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a bi-color typeset cedula label as Ex Ossibus Ste. Rafqa (of the bone of Saint Rafqa). 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 Postulator General of the Lebanese Maronite Order. The theca is accompanied by the matching authentics document issued and signed by the Postulator General on June 10th, 2005 (the anniversary day of her canonization).
This item is appropriate for private and public veneration. A photograph of the document is available upon request.
