A blue rectangular silk veil of about 1 meter x 3 meters (commonly called "Manto della Madonna") finely decorated with floral themes in gold thread and featuring a gold fringe along the edges sewn by local artisans around 1965. Used for special occasions when it replaces one of the same size and color but with fewer decorations and of lower quality. Already the object of misappropriation by someone or perhaps destined to be thrown away immediately after the disappearance of the Parish Priest Don Salvatore Pierro in the early 2000s, it was found and thus "saved" just in time only thanks to the insistence and obstinacy resulting from the "intellectual curiosity" and "historical memory" of an emigrant from Moschiano who happened to be at the Sanctuary on Easter Monday and noticed its absence.
