This large olive wood Holy Family statue brings Mary, Joseph and child Jesus together in a unified Bethlehem carving. Mary stands on the left and Joseph on the right, while the child is centered before them with each parent holding one of his hands. The arrangement emphasizes family connection rather than presenting three separate figures. The verified height is 50 cm, with a base measuring approximately 23 by 17 cm. In inches, the size is about 19.7 by 9.1 by 6.7. The measured weight is 5,698 g, or about 12.56 lb. A separate dark wooden base and a Holy Family nameplate support the tall, two-tone olive wood composition.

The Carving at a Glance

Mary and Joseph are carved at nearly equal height, forming a protective frame around the smaller figure of Jesus. Their long robes carry layered lines and alternating grain, while the joined hands bring the eye toward the center. The sculpture can be read clearly from a distance, and closer viewing reveals the faces, folds and natural movement of the wood.

Why This Sculpture Stands Apart

At almost 20 inches tall and more than 12 lb, this is a substantial family sculpture rather than a small nativity accessory. The broad base gives the vertical composition stability. Natural light and dark areas within the olive wood create separation between Mary, Joseph and Jesus without paint, making the grain part of the design.

Devotional Meaning

The Holy Family is associated with love, mutual care, faithfulness and the spiritual life of the home. This carving suits a family prayer space, church office, parish room or formal living area. It can also mark a wedding, anniversary, house blessing, Christmas celebration or a family milestone with a lasting Bethlehem connection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the exact size and weight of this Holy Family statue?

The statue is 50 cm high with a base approximately 23 cm wide and 17 cm deep. That is about 19.7 by 9.1 by 6.7 inches. The measured weight is 5,698 g, around 12.56 lb.

Which figures appear in the carving?

Mary stands at the left, Joseph at the right and child Jesus stands between them. Mary and Joseph each hold one of the child hands, joining the three figures in one scene.

Is this a nativity set or one sculpture?

It is one complete Holy Family sculpture mounted on its display base. The figures are presented as a standing family group rather than as separate nativity pieces.

What makes the color vary across the figures?

The contrast comes from the natural olive wood grain and tonal variation. Each carving will show its own light and dark markings while keeping the same Holy Family design.

Where should a heavy statue like this be displayed?

Use a stable cabinet, pedestal, altar table or deep shelf rated for its 5.7 kg weight. Leave enough space around the figures so the carving can be viewed without being bumped.

Care: Wipe loose dust from the figures with a clean dry microfiber cloth. Set the carving away from damp surfaces, heaters and concentrated sunlight. When relocating the 5.7 kg sculpture, hold the underside of the base with both hands.
