Reliquary in the form of a church, modelled on that of St Sernin in Toulouse and probably made in a goldsmith's workshop in that city not far from Grandselve. One of seven reliquaries now in the church at Bouillac near the site of the former abbey. Made of walnut covered with a sheet of gilt silver and set with coloured stones. Christ in Majesty in the centre is flanked by
four saints, among them St Benedict and Bernard in eucharistic vestments, nimbed and with a book in one hand and a crozier in the other. See also VA 30.
