1991 Documented theca with relics of 3 Martyrs of Vietnam: St. Joseph Canh, St. Ignatius Delgado & St. Joseph Fernandez

Round yellow-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relics of the three Martyrs of Vietnam: Saint Joseph Canh, Saint Ignatius Delgado y Cebrian, OP and Saint Joseph Fernandez, OP.  The relics are affixed to a red silk ground decorated by silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on typeset cedulae labels as S. Josephi Ca // S. Ignat. Delgado // S. Jps. Fern. (Saint Joseph Canh // Saint Ignatius Delgado // Saint Joseph Fernandez). 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 Dominican Order. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed in 1991 by the Postulator General of the Order responsible for the Causes of Canonization. 

The Vietnamese Martyrs (Vietnamese: Các Thánh Tử đạo Việt Nam; French: Martyrs du Viêt Nam), also known as the Martyrs of Annam, Martyrs of Tonkin and Cochinchina, Martyrs of Indochina, or Andrew Dung-Lac and Companions (Anrê Dũng-Lạc và các bạn tử đạo), are saints on the General Roman Calendar who were canonized by Pope John Paul II on June 19, 1988. Their Feast Day is commemorated on November 24.

Saint Joseph Canh Luang Hoang († 1838 ) was a Martyr of Vietnam. He was a native physician of Vietnam, a Dominican tertiary, and was beheaded by the Japanese authorities because of his refusal to deny Christ. He was canonized in 1988 by Pope John Paul II.

Saint Ignatius Delgado y Cebrian, OP, († 1838 ) was a bishop from Spain who was captured in the village of Can Lao, put in a cage on public display for ridicule and abuse, and died of hunger and exposure while waiting for execution.

Saint Joseph Fernandez, OP, († 1838 ) was a Dominican martyr of Vietnam. He was sent there in 1805 as an ordained priest and appointed provincial vicar of the mission. He was beheaded. He was canonized in 1988 by Pope John Paul II.
