Description
From the sellerThis is a "Terra Grotte Vaticane" religious reliquary pendant. It is an antique Catholic medal containing earth (terra) from the Vatican Grottoes or catacombs. The medal is typically made of silver-toned or silver-plated metal. The center features a small, sealed insert containing the soil, often appearing reddish. Such pendants are considered third-class relics and were sometimes issued during the pontificates of specific popes, such as Pope Paul VI or Pope John XXIII.
