1976 Documented reliquary with relic of Blessed Beatrix II d'Este

Small round white-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of Blessed Beatrix II d'Este. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Beatr. II (Blessed Beatrix II [d'Este]). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Order of Friars Minor Capuchin. The reliquary is accompanied by a fascimille authentics document issued by in 1976 by Archbishop Natale Mosconi (†), Archbishop of Ferrara, Italy

Blessed Beatrix II d'Este (†1262) belonged to a family of the Norman Dukes of Apulia and was herself the daughter of the Marquis of Ferrara; she was also a niece of the Blessed Beatrice d'Este, hence being named after her. She was betrothed to Galeazzo Manfredi of Vicenza but he succumbed due to his wounds after a battle, just before their wedding day. Beatrice refused to return home, but attended by some of her maidens, devoted herself to the service of God, following the Benedictine rule, at the convent of Sant'Antonio in Polesine, at San Lazzaro just outside of Ferrara. She was beatified in 1774 by Pope Clement XIV and her Feast Day is commemorated on 19 January.
