Description: Reliquary with the Nail of our Lord + Relic document of authenticity by Bishop (year 1865) A very rare reliquary with the Nail of our Lord Jesus Christ. The reliquary does not contain the whole Nail with which the Lord was nailed, but only the soldered-in Part. SANCTISSIMUS EX CLAVO DOMINI NOSTRI JESU CHRISTI - "Most Holy, from the Nail of our Lord Jesus Christ". A reliquary made of mahogany, richly decorated inside with real gold and silver ornaments, around the Nail - a resemblance to the Crown of the Savior. Monastic work, second half of the 19th century. Height - 36 cm, base 20 cm by 11 cm. Holy Nail length: about 23 cm. Authentic relic. All seals intact. Bishop document. Saint Queen Helena, after finding the Nails with which the Lord was nailed, ordered them to be melted down. At present, there is not a single Nail that directly touched the Body of Christ, but only what was melted down. That is, even in this there is a Part of the True Nail of Christ. There are also so-called contact relics of the Nail, that is, these are simply metal Nails that only touched something like this. In the late 19th and until the mid-20th century, these contact relics were issued by two Basilicas in Rome, and did not have a bishop's document, but only a standard text for a contact relic.
