Description
A Very Rare find! This is a nice ornate reliquary with the relic of St. John de Britto. "Saint John de Britto, also known as Arul Anandar, was a Portuguese Jesuit missionary and martyr, often called 'the Portuguese St Francis Xavier' by Indian Catholics. He can be called the John the Baptist of India.” The cross reliquary is all brass, polished and lacquered. It stands 7 1/2" tall x 3 7/8" wide. This makes a great gift to your church or pastor. One very happy winner! This relic was when he was "Blessed" before he received Sainthood. You can tell by the B. before the name on the relic.
