Gothic monstrance or reliquary with lockable inner assembly. Total height: 775 mm or 30 1/2 inch, if printed in 100% (see pictures, ciborium for scale). The largest dimensions while printing in each axis are x: 250 mm, y: 290 mm, z: 259 mm. According to the relic inside, the two empty spaces on the lower part of the main body can be decorated freely, just as the statues can be chosen freely. I uploaded here the final .stl files of the three statues I used and modified, with their original sources below. Obviously, the adapter has to be modified for the specific theca of the relic inside, but I have uploaded a general design; it works by grabbing the theca at its front rim.
The parts are: base, main body, three towers (each two pieces + pins), front rim holding a D=45 mm, v=1 mm glass, backplate, two pieces for securing the inner adapter (plate and pin) and four pieces for the adapter itself. The connecting dimensions are designed nominal, so post-processing is required, especially with the securing plate, which migh be needed to be printed with a thickness of 75%, and at the place of the glass, depending on your settings. Revell 94 Gold and Revell 90 Silver modeling paints are used. Printed in Creality HyperABS.
If the adapter is locked in place by the two securing elements, the plate and pin, and those are wrapped around with a thread in a way, that the thread goes around the back of the plate and also through the holes of both the plate and pin. If the thread is sealed with a wax seal or something similar, than the adapter cannot be taken out without residual deformation or damage to one or more parts of the reliquary. See picture.
