Small reliquary theca with relic of St. Quirinus of Neuss, Martyr of Rome

Small oval glass-fronted silver reliquary theca housing a relic of Saint Quirinus of Rome, Martyr. The relic is affixed to a silk ground surrounded by silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as S. Quirin. (Saint Quirinus). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a perfectly-preserved seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Monsignor Costantino Patrizi Naro (†1876), Dean of the College of Cardinals and the Vicar General of the Roman Curia (1841-1876).

Saint Quirinus of Rome (German: Quirin, Quirinus), also known as Quirinus of Neuss is venerated as a martyr and saint of the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. His cult was centered at Neuss in Germany, though he was a Roman martyr. The tradition makes him a Roman tribune who was ordered to execute Alexander, Eventius, and Theodolus, who had been arrested by order of Trajan. However, after witnessing miracles performed by these three martyrs, Quirinus converted to Christianity and was baptized by Alexander, along with his daughter Balbina. Quirin was condemned to have his tongue, hands, and feet cut off. His tongue was offered to a falcon, but the bird refused to eat it. The hands and feet were in like manner, cast to dogs, but they refused to devour them. Afterward, he was drawn by oxen to the place of final execution, where he was decapitated. It is believed he was martyred on March 30, before being buried in the catacomb of Prætextatus on the Via Appia. His feast day is April 30.
