A 14" / 35 cm olive wood standing crucifix cross made in the Holyland. Environmentally friendly since they are carved from the pruned branches of olive trees since the olive tree is a protected species in the Holy Land and it cannot be chopped down. Olive wood souvenirs make perfect gifts and heirlooms since they do not require much care. Olive oil naturally protects them from corrosion and changes of color. Each one is unique since the grain and coloring is different on each one adding to its natural beauty
