History:
A reliquary (also referred to as a shrine, by the French term châsse or monstrance) is a container for important religious relics.
The earliest reliquaries were essentially boxes, either simply box-shaped or based on an architectural design, taking the form of a model of a church with a pitched roof. These latter are known by the French term chasse, and typical examples from the 12th to 14th century have wooden frameworks with gilt-copper plaques nailed on, decorated in champlevé enamel. Limoges was the largest production centre; NB the English usage differs from that of the French châsse, which denotes large size rather than shape.
Relics of the True Cross became very popular from the 9th century onward and were housed in magnificent gold and silver cross-shaped reliquaries decorated with enamels and precious stones. From about the end of the 10th century, reliquaries in the shape of the relics they housed also became popular; hence, for instance, the skull of Pope Alexander I was housed in a head-shaped reliquary. Similarly, the bones of saints were often housed in reliquaries that recalled the shape of the original body part, such as an arm or a foot.
A philatory is a transparent reliquary designed to contain and exhibit the bones and relics of saints. This style of reliquary has a viewing portal to view the relic inside. The feretrum was a medieval form of reliquary or shrine containing the sacred effigies and relics of a saint.
During the later Middle Ages, the monstrance form, primarily used for consecrated hosts, was sometimes used for reliquaries. These housed the relic in a rock crystal, or glass capsule mounted on a column above a base, enabling the relic to be displayed to the faithful. Reliquaries in the form of large pieces of metalwork jewellery also appeared around this time, housing tiny relics such as pieces of the Holy Thorn, notably the Holy Thorn Reliquary now in the British Museum.
Condition:
Superb museum quality examples, in excellent original unrestored antique condition with beautifully aged patina. Wear consistent with age and use. Heavily patinated - scattered oxidation. Overall wonderful examples.
Typically reliquaries were not sold in pairs, so to find a matching pair such as this is exceptionally rare.

Presented is a Limited Edition, Binder’s Copy of Magic Moments: A Century of Spartan Basketball, written by Jack Ebling and John Farina. This special printing is autographed by six of Spartan’s greatest basketball players, to include Magic Johnson, Johnny Green, Greg Kelser, Scott Skiles, Steve Smith, and Shawn Respert, as well as two storied head coaches, Jud Heathcote and Tom Izzo. The book was published by Sleeping Bear Press in 1998 in this limited edition deluxe binding.
The book is presented with stunning green leather boards, blind embossed with the Spartans helmet and gilt titles on the front, raised bands, gilt titles, and gilt stamps to the spine, green marbled endpaper, and most importantly, the vellum limitation page with the original players’ and coaches’ signatures. Issued in a numbered edition of only 100 copies, this book is even more unique as it was the “Binder’s Copy”- gifted to Keith Felton of Felton Bookbinding, Ltd, who bound the limited editions. It also comes with a matching and archival ¼ leather and cloth clamshell case.
Magic Moments profiles the most memorable players, coaches, teams, and games in Michigan State Basketball's spectacular history. With two national championships and 16 Big Ten Championships, Michigan State is rightfully categorized as one of the perennially elite programs in college basketball history. The Spartans won the National Championship in both the 1979 NCAA Tournament and 2000 NCAA Tournament. The 1979 National Championship story was highly touted as Magic vs. Bird. It was achieved by a team under the coaching of Jud Heathcote that included MVP Magic Johnson, Greg Kelser, and Jay Vincent. MSU beat the then undefeated Indiana State Sycamores, led by future NBA hall of famer Larry Bird. The 2000 National Championship was achieved by Morris Peterson, A.J. Granger, Charlie Bell, Jason Richardson, and MVP Mateen Cleaves, with head coach Tom Izzo leading the team in a victory over the Florida Gators.
Michigan State has produced many successful NBA players through the years. Thanks to the dedicated leadership of Jud Heathcote, who was head coach for nineteen years, and his successor Tom Izzo, head coach for more than twenty five seasons, MSU's players have translated their success from college courts to the professional leagues. Magic Moments profiles 29 of those talented players, across 25 dedicated player chapters. The book starts with Earving “Magic” Johnson, a once in a lifetime player, who reinvigorated America’s interest in college basketball during his time at MSU and went on to win 5 NBA titles with the Lakers, 3 MVPs, and revolutionize the point guard...
