1993 Documented reliquary theca with relic of Saint Joseph (Giuseppe) Marello, Founder of the Oblates of Saint Joseph

Round glass-fronted yellow-metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus  (of the bone) pre-canonization relic of Saint Joseph Marello. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as Ex Ossibus Beati Marello (Ex Ossibus of the Blessed [Joseph] Marello).  On the back, under the protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Oblates of Saint Joseph. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued on 26 September 1993 (the very day of his beatification) by the Postulator General of the Order.
