{"product_id":"large-olive-wood-st-michael-archangel-statue-bethlehem-18-inch","title":"Large Olive Wood St. Michael Archangel Statue, Bethlehem 18.5 Inch","description":"\u003cdiv id=\"zuluf-tldr\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:15px;color:#6b5d4f;line-height:1.65\"\u003eAt 18.5 inches tall, this Bethlehem olive wood interpretation of St. Michael commands attention for a prayer room, church office, home altar or formal display. St. Michael raises a long sword above the scene while broad carved wings extend behind his armor. His lowered hand holds two strings of wooden beads, and his foot rests within a detailed victory composition above the base. The verified sculpture measures 47 cm high, 25 cm wide and 21 cm deep, approximately 18.5 by 9.8 by 8.3 inches. Its measured weight is 2,686 g, about 5.92 lb. Natural olive wood grain moves across the figure, wings and separate dark wooden base, so each finished carving carries its own pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eThe Carving at a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size:16px;color:#5a4a3a;line-height:1.65\"\u003eThe tall vertical pose gives this St. Michael sculpture presence from across a room, yet the close work is equally important. Fine cuts define the hair, face, breastplate, layered garment and individual feathers. The defeated figure beneath the archangel creates a complete narrative rather than a simple standing portrait. A small St. Michael nameplate on the base identifies the subject without interrupting the carved scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:14px 0\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#faf6f1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;width:34%;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eSubject\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003eSt. Michael raising his sword above a carved scene of victory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003eGenuine olive wood figure with a separate wooden display base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#faf6f1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003e47 x 25 x 21 cm, approximately 18.5 x 9.8 x 8.3 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003e2,686 g, approximately 5.92 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#faf6f1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003eBethlehem, Holy Land\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eCarved details\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #e8e0d5\"\u003eRaised sword, broad feathered wings, carved armor, hanging wooden beads, defeated figure and St. Michael nameplate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"background:#faf6f1;border-left:4px solid #c8a96e;padding:18px 20px;margin:20px 0;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px;font-weight:600;color:#5a4a3a\"\u003eWhy This Sculpture Stands Apart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;color:#6b5d4f;font-size:15px;line-height:1.65\"\u003eThe sculpture combines height, width and a deeply carved base scene in one balanced composition.
