"For over a decade, we have been blessed by Holy Land Art and the wonderful Olive Wood items they offer. The Sa'd Family visits our church in Tennessee almost annually to share their products, their mission, and their stories with us. Through them we have been able to buy beautiful items made in the Holy Land by artists they know. We have many members of the church who look forward to their visits for purchases of meaningful gifts as well as important artifacts for their own homes. Our church's bell tower and my office both have lovely Crucifixes we were able to procure through them. I highly recommend Holy Land Art and the Sa'd Family."
From the City of Bethlehem, where Jesus was born, we bring to you these works of art which contain the best religious figurines in artistic form made of olive wood carvings. Olive wood carving is a tradition that was introduced by the monks and priests and later perfected by local carvers that have passed their skill on from father to son for over 700 years.
However, These works of art are made from the trimmings of the holy land olive tree. This is an essential process for the health and proper growth of the tress. There are absolutely no trees that are damaged in the process. The Olive wood has a unique beauty and quality that is not found in any other tree. The solidity and fixed colors are a result of oil in the wood fibers. The beauty from gradations, ripples and differentiations of color lines make it very beautiful and eye-catching.
Today there are over 600 families in the City of Bethlehem who still perfect this art and depend upon it for their main source of income.
