18th Cent Silver Reliquary 10 Relics Our Lady St Julian St Nectarius St Claude

Rare 18th-century medallion reliquary crafted in silver and shell, containing a remarkable ensemble of 10 relics:

• Saint Claude

• The Veil of Our Lady of Loreto

• Saint Amable of Riom

• Saint Julian

• Saint Genesius

• Saint Clement

• Saint Eutropius

• Saint Nectarius

• Saint Odilia (attributed)

• Saint Abraham

The front of the medallion features a delicate representation of the Virgin and Child, reinforcing its Marian character and intimate devotional function. The combination of precious materials and sacred imagery exemplifies the aesthetic and spiritual sensibility of 18th-century reliquary production.

The reverse originally bore episcopal wax seals securing the silk threads; while these seals are now partially broken, they remain as evidence of its historical ecclesiastical authentication and long devotional use, adding to the object’s authenticity and narrative.

This reliquary stands as a rare and evocative devotional object, uniting multiple saints and sacred associations within an elegant and historically significant form.
