This is a LOVELY assortment of antique French relics collected over time. This is a wide assortment and I have gathered what information I could about each piece.

Please don't hesitate to email with questions.

A - C - These are all SAINT THERESE fabric scapulars. Two have a single Saint Therese rose medal and one has two medals that I did not research.

D - Agnus Dei or "the lamb of God" scapulars. Adnus Dei is the designation of Jesus Christ. It is based on the saying of John the Baptist: "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29). There are two available but they are sold individually. I am not sure but these might be leather. Thay are hand stitched around the edges.

E - From the latin word fidelis, meaning "faithful".

F - This is another Agnus Dei scapular only it is very ornate and has been delicately hand stitched around the edges with extremely tiny stitches.

G. This is Sacred Heart of Jesus scapular. "voilà ce coeur qui antant aime les hommes."

Translated - "Here is this heart which once loved men".

H - Probably one of the best pieces I have found I only wish I could read it. This is a very old piece with a metal cross on the inside and a medal attached to the top. The outer edge is bound what appears to be pinked brass.
