Reliquary With Paperolles 19th Century: The Holy Family
19th century reliquary
Reliquary made using the Paperolles technique, a decorative technique that uses narrow strips of gold on the edge to form loops, circles and other figures, often in association with metal wires to create a 3-dimensional subject.

This type of reliquary was often made in convents by nuns, each piece being unique and very meticulous
