Opulent ornate solid gilt brass mid-20th century reliquary frame housing round gilt silver theca with first class ex ossibus relic of Saint Francis of Assisi. Inside of the theca mounted in the middle of the silver background and surrounded by flower decoration the precious relic is affixed to the background of red silk and identified as S. Franc. Ass. Due to construction of the frame, it is impossible to see the protective seal on the theca without disturbing the set up, but we believe that the theca dates to ca. 1950's and sealed by cardinal Clemente Micara, Vicar General of Rome.
