Olive trees have covered the hills of the Holy Land for all of recorded history. Deeply rooted, their ancient age is seen in their massive and gnarled trunks that have been silent witness to centuries of events. The Olive Tree is mentioned in the Bible therefore it became a symbol of peace, prosperity, and hope. Pilgrims have yearned for years and years to carry back to their homes a piece of the Holy Land, and the olive tree branches have always been a favorite. Therefore, the artisans found Olive Wood as the perfect material for their carvings and creations, providing us with remarkable artworks representing our faith.
Please Note that Olive wood souvenirs do not require much care. Olive oil naturally protects them from corrosion and changes of color. Please note no two olive wood products look exactly alike, wood grain varies. The product you receive may not look exactly like that which is pictured.
