Saint Andrew Avellino († 1608) was an Italian Theatine priest who led a life busy in preaching, hearing confessions, visiting the sick, and writing.Born at Castronuovo, a small town in the province of Potenza Basilicata, his baptismal name was Lancelotto, which out of love for the cross he changed into Andrew when he entered the Order of Theatines. He was so successful in converting sinners and heretics by his prudence in the direction of souls and by his eloquent preaching, that numerous disciples thronged around him, eager to be under his spiritual guidance. Saint Andrew was Beatified in 1624 by Pope Urban VIII and Canonized in 1712 by Pope Clement XI. He is a patron of Naples, Sicily, and invoked against sudden death.
Oval glass-fronted silvered brass reliquary theca housing a relic of Saint Andrew Avellino. The relic is mounted on yellow silk ground surrounded by silver wire and paperolle ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as S. Andr. Avel. (Saint Andrew Avellino). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax with an imprint of a coat of arms of Pope Pius VI (1775-1799).
