Item Details
Description
Reliquary reputably containing the skin and hair of St. Teresa Margaret of the Sacred Heart, OCD (Italian, 1747-1770). Born Anna Maria Redi, she was admitted to the monastery of Discalced Carmelite nuns in Florence in November 1764. She took the name Teresa Margaret Marianne of the Sacred Heart and took her vows on March 12, 1766. She died at the young age of 22 in 1770, having had a premonition of her death shortly before. The beatification process began in 1806 and was approved over a century later in 1929. Her canonization finally took place in 1934. The present relics come with a letter of authenticity dated May 4, 1933, shortly before her canonization.
