Fine reliquary with relic of the Crown of Thorns of Jesus Christ

An attractive round glass-fronted ivory frame reliquary theca housing precious relic of the Thorn from the Crown of Thorns of Jesus Christ. The relic is displayed on the ground of red silk inside of a smaller inner silver theca surrounded by an intricately made silver image the Crown of Thorns and seven set semi-precious amethists with looped silver wire. The relic is identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as Ste Spine de la Coronae D.N.J.C. (Holy Thorn from the Crown of Thorns of Our Lord Jesus Christ). On the back, the reliquary is secured by a red silk ribbon held in place by three seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint with a coat of arms of an unidentified Roman Catholic Bishop (most likely French).

According to the New Testament, a woven Crown of Thorns was placed on the head of Jesus during the events leading up to his crucifixion. It was one of the instruments of the Passion, employed by Jesus' captors both to cause him pain and to mock his claim of authority. It is mentioned in the gospels of Matthew (Matthew 27:29), Mark (Mark 15:17) and John (John 19:2, 19:5), and is often alluded to by the early Church Fathers, such as Clement of Alexandria, Origen and others, along with being referenced in the apocryphal Gospel of Peter. Since at least around the year 400 AD, a relic of the Crown of Thorns has been venerated. In 1238, the Latin Emperor Baldwin II of Constantinople yielded the relic to French King Louis IX.
