Antique French 1800's Carved Meerschaum Sacred Heart of Jesus Reliquary




I recently acquired one of the most magnificently carved antique French meerschaum Sacred Heart of Jesus reliquaries in a copper frame. I've owned a few of these in the past, but never one as detailed in such high relief. The face of Jesus is so sweet and loving. What a rare find.
