A distinct gift from the Holy Land: Holy Family. This statue is hand made in
the Holy city of Bethlehem. Mary and Joseph are holding Jesus. A truly loving scene.
The statue is made from one piece of Olive Wood, symbolic of family unity and Love.
The statue is lovingly hand carved out of Olive Wood that is native to the Holy Land.
Olive Wood has a rich beautiful natural dark grain that contrasts against the lighter
color of the wood. The figures are free standing, allowing you to arrange them however
is appropriate in your home.
Each statue is unique, distinct, and a work of art unto itself. The figures are
not molded. Instead the entire statue is hand carved by a Christian Family in the Holy
City of Bethlehem. No two sets are the same.
All the wood used is Olive Wood that is locally grown in orchards between the
Holy Cities of Bethlehem and Jerusalem. Olive Trees do not grow from seeds: they are
grafted, like vines. Some of Olive trees are hundreds of years old. The families of
artisans that have been producing these carvings have been doing so for hundreds of
years.
Most people cannot travel to the Holy Land. Let us bring the Holy Land to you.
Grace your home with this distinctive statue that embodies the spirit of family and
love.
