More about this item:
Reliquaries have been used for centuries to house and venerate relics, which are usually the physical remains of saints, such as bones, fragments of clothing, or objects associated with them.
A reliquary medallion typically consists of a small container, often made of precious materials such as gold, silver, or bronze, that holds the relic securely. In the case of this wooden reliquary, the container has a wooden framework or casing. The relic itself is enclosed within a small compartment or visible through a transparent rock crystal, allowing believers to view and venerate the relic without direct contact.
The medallion format indicates that it is designed to be worn or carried as a personal devotional item. It could be attached to a chain or worn as a pendant around the neck, or kept close by as a cherished possession.
