1795 Vatican documented reliquary theca with relic of St. Candida, Martyr

Oval glass-fronted silvered brass reliquary theca housing the first-class ex ossibus (of a bone) relic of Saint Candida, Martyr of Rome. A substantial relic is affixed to a gilt paper starburst on a red silk ground surrounded by silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a fancy manuscript cedula label as Ex Ossibus S. Candidae, V&.M. (Of the bone of Saint Candida, Virgin & 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. Francesco Saverio Cristiani O.E.S.A. (†1800), Titular Bishop of Porphyreon and Sacristan of the Apostolic Curia (1782-1800). The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed by Father Cristiani in 1795.

Saint Candida of Rome was one of a group of martyrs slain on the Ostian Way outside the gates of Rome. Candida's remains are enshrined in St. Praxedes church, and were blessed by Pope St. Pasehal I in the ninth century. The exact date of her death is not known, and her Feastday is commemorated on August 29.
