Reliquary theca with relics of Saint Cajetan (Gaetano dei Conti di Thiene), Patron of Gamblers

Oval silvered brass glass-fronted theca housing a second-class from the robe relic of Saint Cajetan. The relic is affixed to a gilt paper starburst on a red silk background and identified on a manuscript cedula label as Ex Stol[a] S. Cajetani Thie.  On the back,  the theca is secured by a seal of red Spanish wax with an imprint of a coat of arms of Fr. Giuseppe Mancini (†1855), the Archbishop of Siena (1824-1855).
