Hand-Carved Statues From Olive Wood

The multiple uses of the Olive Tree makes it unique. It is the source of our Olive Wood hand-carved statues and other products, including our scented anointing oils. The Olive Wood of Jerusalem is the symbol of Eternal Life. In the Holy Bible, Noah sent out a dove from the ark to find dry land and the dove returned with an Olive tree branch. The oil from the Olive tree in addition to being edible has health benefits.

The Olive tree is an evergreen tree. It flourishes only near the sea and under cultivation. The Olive tree is a slow growing tree, but a long lasting one. A tree can produce and live for up to 2000 years. The Olive tree begins to hollow as it gets older, so it is not good for building, but useful and unique for making decorative designs inside buildings and hand-carving. Hand-carved statues, the product of skillful craftsmen in Bethlehem include: crucifixes, jewelry, and decorative all purpose boxes from olive wood. Some of the master pieces we have include the hand-carved Last Supper, Jesus Carrying the Cross statue, the hand-carved Nativity, Jesus washing Peter's Feet statue, statues of Abraham, Joshua and Caleb statue, and more. See the Olive Tree Collection.

Each of our Olive wood items is unique because each cut of olive wood is different as can be seen from the grains in the olive wood. The beautiful design and details of our hand-carved statues will capture attention.
