Please examine photos. They are THIS item and are part of the description. I do not use stock photos or photos of other people’s items.

This is an amazing little hand made miniature "book" with four "pages" devoted to Catholic Christian images and Saints. The first page, the left front cover, is a printed image of a winged Sacred Heart center. Below in the cartouche, written in black ink "Que toutes les piensees soient au Siegneur" (May all thoughts be of the Lord). This page is framed under glass. The second page is a hand sewn invocation of four Saints. The beads and threads are gold an silver. There is a small cross center and in each corner are written in red the names of "Sto Sebastero", "S. Andres", "S. Antonio" and "Bartolome". This page is also framed under glass. The third page has a gold foil background and more gold ad silver thread and beads. It is devoted to "S. Jose" center and "Sta Rosa" upper right. The other three corners may have been reserved for additional Saints and why this page does not have a glass cover. The fourth page, the back cover, has a printed image of a lamb with the triangulated eye of God in a cloud above. The handwriting below is hard to read. The paper appears torn. It is framed under glass. The "book" is 2 1/2" by 2". The embossed brown leather is framed with strips of embossed tan leather. The hinges are brass. The spine has no title. I could not find anything similar on line. If you have better information please message me.
