Olive Wood Crucifix/Wall Cross Adorned with Olive Leaves, Frankincense, Flowers and Stones from Jerusalem Hand Crafted by Artisans in Bethlehem (The Heart of The holy Land);

Crosses are individually carved from beautifully grained olive wood which is pruned from the olive trees around Bethlehem the birthplace of Jesus. Christians have been carving handicrafts like this for hundreds of years, originally for pilgrims and more recently tourists visiting the Holy Land. "The Cross Of The Fourteen Stations". This olive wood cross is named after the fourteen stations of the Via Dolorosa (the way of the cross). Fourteen individual Olive Wood pieces are joined together to make this cross crucifix. Each piece represents the agony of Christ from judgment to the Crucifixion at Calvary. This Cross comes with a pewter crucifix and 4 Gospel icons that are embedded in the wood. It is fashioned from genuine olive wood by artisans from Bethlehem. The superb high gloss accentuates the beautiful coloring of the olive wood. 11" x 7" x 1.25"
