Description
La teca di forma quadrangolare è incorniciata da intagli di tipo vegetale: la sostiene un fusto sagomato terminante in una base svasata. Il ricettacolo contiene circa nove frammenti ossei di santi martiri incastonati su di un fondo tempestato di perline e pietre varie.
Historical-Criticism news
I reliquiari sono riconoscibili in una foto risalente alla fine dell'Ottocento sull'altare della Cappella dell'Istituto delle Figlie dei Militari, con sede nell'omonima via (ASTO, Corte, INFM, cat. 21, u.a. 954, J. David, 1895-1896, neg. 184622). Gli ornati, sinuosi e sobri, limitati alla cornice della teca, suggeriscono una datazione intorno alla seconda metà del sec. XVIII.
