Theca with relic of St. Anne, Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary

18th-century oval silver crystal-fronted theca housing first-class ex ossibus relic of Saint Anne, Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The relic is affixed to a background of multicolored silk, surrounded by intricate paperolle ornamentation and titled on paper cedula in 18th-century ductus as S. Annae. The back of the theca is secured by a perfectly preserved seal of red Spanish wax with a clear imprint of a coat of arms of Cardinal Francesco Burghesi (†1759), Titular Bishop of the Basilica Santa Maria de Traveste.
