Reliquary in the shape of a forearm on a hexagonal profiled plinth with coats of arms held by angels in the corners.
Halfway up the body, a glass cylinder containing a relic: a vertically positioned bone fragment. Hand with two fingers extended in a gesture of blessing. On the thumb, a ring with an amethyst in a rectangular setting. Inside the hand, on a hexagonal small plinth, a figure of a bishop in ceremonial attire, leaning on a staff. Among the coats of arms, possibly of the co-founders of the reliquary, is the coat of arms of Bishop Jodok of Rosenberg (1456–1467). Foundation of Canon Jacob Ketscher.
Inscription: Around the lower part of the plinth, engraved inscriptions: mcccclxv. Vicarius. Wrat dnus. Iacobus ketscher. Me . comparavit. On the scroll: maria. Brachiu s stanislai epi.
