| Notes | Silver relief in the center depicts Christ carrying the cross. Black frame of the reliquary was adorned with 9 rubies, 2 aquamarines, plates of lapis lazuli, rosettes with karneol and gold and silver fittings. The frame contains some precious relics. A silver cross at the top is accompanied with figures of Apostles Peter and Paul on both sides. The reliquary was created in Munich by goldsmith Hans Heinrich Wagner, son of court goldsmith Heinrich Wagner. He personally embarked on a trip to Poland to hand over the papal gift. Paweł Wołucki, bishop of Lutsk and Włocławek was secretary of king Sigismund III Vasa. The reliquary returned to Munich, most probably as part of a dowry of one of the Polish-Lithuanian princesses (Anna Catherine Constance Vasa, Teresa Kunegunda Sobieska, Ludwika Karolina Radziwiłł or Teresa Lubomirska). |
