Reliquary theca with relic of St. Frances of Rome & St. Angela of Foligno

Oval glass-fronted metal pendant reliquary theca housing relics of two Christian saints: Saint Frances of Romeand a pre-canonization relic of Saint ​Angela of Foligno. The relics are affixed to a salmon-colored silk ground surrounded by silver wire and gilt paperolle ornamentation and identified in Latin on manuscript cedulae labels as S. Franc. Rom. Vid. // B. Angela Fol (Saint Frances of Rome, Widow and Blessed ​Angela of Foligno).On the back, the theca is secured by a perfectly preserved seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint with a coat of arms of Fr. Antonio Martini (†1809), Archbishop of Florence (1781-1809).

Saint Frances of Rome Obl. S. B. (†1440) is an Italian saint who founded a religious community of oblates, who share a common life without religious vows. She was canonized in 1608 by Pope Paul V and her feast is celebrated on March 9.  In 1925, Pope Pius XI declared her the patron saint of automobile drivers because of a legend that an angel used to light the road before her with a lantern when she traveled, keeping her safe from hazards. Within the Benedictine Order, she is also honored as a patron saint of all oblates. She is also a patron saint of widows.

Saint ​Angela of Foligno, T.O.S.F., (†1309) was an Italian Franciscan tertiary who became known as a mystic from her extensive writings about her mystical revelations. Due to the respect they engendered in the Catholic Church, she is known as "Mistress of Theologians". Pope Clement XI approved the veneration paid to her over the centuries in his beatification of her ​in 1701 and Pope Francis extended the veneration to all the Church ​in 2013, declaring her a saint.
