A distinct gift from the Holy Land: Joseph and Mary with Jesus. This statue is hand made in the
Holy city of Bethlehem. Mary is motherly holding Jesus, while Joseph has his arm around Mary and is
holding a lantern. A truly loving scene. A Star of Bethlehem watches over the family. 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 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.
