Мощевик с мощами Св. Апостола Иакова Алфеева

Oval crystal-fronted silver pendant reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of St. James the Less, the Apostle.  The relic is affixed to a ground of silk, surrounded by silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as S. Jacob. Min. A. (St. James the Less, the Apostle). On the back, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Giuseppe Maria Martelli (†1741) Archbishop of Florence, Italy (1722-1740).

Saint James, son of Alphaeus was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, appearing under this name in all three of the Synoptic Gospels' lists of the apostles. He is often identified with James the Less and is commonly known by that name in church tradition. He is also labeled "the minor", "the little", "the lesser", or "the younger", according to translation. He appears only four times in the New Testament, each time in a list of the twelve apostles. His feast day is celebrated on May 3 (Roman Catholic Church) and 9 October (Eastern Orthodox Church). He is a Holy Patron of apothecaries; druggists; dying people; Frascati, Italy; fullers; milliners; Monterotondo, Italy; pharmacists; and Uruguay.
