Medium Bethlehem Olivewood Nativity
Imported from Bethlehem, Israel, this delightful little nativity creche still bears its bark, making for a nice "shingle" appearance on the roof of the stable. Almost 5" tall at its highest point, it bears the inscription, "Bethlehem" on the front.
As with our olivewood beads, the wood used for this carving comes from the annual prunings and trimmings of the trees, so no trees are cut down or otherwise harmed in the process. Some of these trees are 2000 years old. Who knows, maybe the tree that provided this wood actually witnessed the birth of Our Lord! In any case, your purchase of this nativity creche helps support a Christian family living in Bethlehem and trying to eke out a living in the unsettled political environment there.
This is the last one of this style in our stock!
