The Ossuaries are used to protect the bones after burial. In the Orthodox Church, the bones of the deceased are placed in their entirety in the Ossuary, while if there is a suspicion that the deceased is a Saint, then a Relic Case is used.
The following Ossuary is large in size for the placement of the Reliquary in the area of the temple. It is handmade and wood carved with designs of the Byzantine tradition while at the bottom it has storage space.

"...I received the 3 pins today in the mail which I recently ordered, and I would like to thank you very much for such beautiful items!!! I live in Texas and we have a small Greek community and Greek Orthodox church. I have to wait until November when we have our annual Greek Festival before I can purchase items such as these, and so I was so happy to have been able to order these without even leaving my home!! I have also placed an order for several icons for my children. I look forward to receiving them in the near future...."
