This print showcases a remarkable relic from the 12th century, known as the Reliquary. Crafted in France around 1175-1200, this exquisite piece is made of translucent rock crystal and features an early 19th-century copper gilt setting. The intricate gilding on the copper adds a touch of opulence to this already stunning artifact. The Reliquary is reminiscent of a small cabinet or casket, with its delicate design and meticulous attention to detail. Its golden hue emanates an aura of spirituality and reverence, reflecting its religious purpose as a container for sacred relics.
