1736 Documented reliquary with relics of St. Agatha, Martyr of Sicily, Patron of Nurses

Oval glass-fronted silvered metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of Saint Agatha of Sicily. The relic is affixed to a silk ground surrounded by paperolle ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as Ex Ossib. // S. Agathae V.M. (Saint Agatha, Virgin and Martyr). On the back, the theca is secured with a perfectly preserved seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Ignazio Stelluti (†1756), Bishop of Macerata e Tolentino (1735-1756). The theca is accompanied by the original matching authentics documents issued and signed by Fr. Stelluti in 1736.
