At the base, it has a small opening the size of a punch hole which contained a miniscule piece of white cloth, believed to have been the relic of the Saint. | |
| Aug 26 at 21:26 | comment | added | Cristina Isabel Calado Filipe | Thank you for your answer... I do feel it as cloth... Supposedly, it's a 1st class relic, as it is supposed to be cloth from his clothes... But according to what you said, it can be something else... The nun who offered it to me thought it was just something that has touched the saint's bones... I'm not sure... | |

| Aug 26 at 15:33 | comment | added | Wyrsa | Welcome to the website, not sure this is the proper place to ask such a question. But was your relic a 2nd class relic that was actually something from a saint or a 3rd class relic that was simply a cloth that was blessed by touching the relic of that saint? They are both unfortunately labeled as "Ex indumentis". I understand your concern, I would be concerned as well if something happened to a relic I was gifted. The red from what I can see is overtop of the material. The white material is not some kind of base, it should be the cloth itself. I'm not catholic, but interested in this stuff. | |
