This is the personal chair of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen as now seen in the Cathedral of St. Mary of The Immaculate Conception in Peoria, Illinois. This chair is made of a combination of wood and plaster making it rather delicate. We had to reattach plaster pieces and touch up all of the gold work so as to maintain its antique, historical, and religious value.
If Bishop Sheen becomes canonized, this chair will become a second class relic. Heritage Restoration also created a stone etching of Bishop Sheen. Click here to learn more about this. |
