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 would like to let you know that I have received the icons today. Very few words can describe my awe at these venerable creations. I don't feel that my home deserves them and that they will find a better place in church. However I cannot think of any better legacy that I would one day leave to my family. Many thanks to you and, your Iconographers and crafts men who worked so hard to make them. May the Lord bless your lives...."
