About This Magnet

It's small enough to sit in your palm, but there's something about the carving that stops you. Mary's holding the baby, head tilted down toward him, and whoever carved this got that tenderness right. Not a generic image. An actual moment.

This olive wood magnet hand carved by Christian artisan families in Bethlehem ships directly from us, no middlemen, no warehouse somewhere in New Jersey. "Jerusalem" is engraved just below the image, which is a small detail but it grounds the whole thing. If you're looking for a magnet gift idea that actually means something, this is one of the ones I'd point you to first.

From Our Family to Yours

Hi, I'm Elias. I've been handling these pieces since I was a kid watching my father work with the carving families here in Bethlehem, and I still pick up every magnet for sale in our shop before it goes out. This one's always been a quiet favorite of mine. The olive wood mary baby carving on this particular design has a warmth to it that photographs almost don't do justice.

Perfect As a Gift

A customer once ordered twelve of these at once, all as magnet baptism gifts for the godparents and family members at her granddaughter's christening. She wrote us afterward to say everyone kept asking where they came from. That doesn't surprise me. Most christian refrigerator magnets you find online are printed on plastic or stamped metal. These aren't.

Whether it's a magnet confirmation gift, a magnet easter gift, or something small to tuck inside a Christmas card, this one travels well and lands well. Order online and we handle the rest, free US shipping on orders over $100.

The Story Behind It

Most christian magnets you find in airport gift shops are made in bulk somewhere far from the places they reference. Ours aren't. These come from Christian artisan families in Bethlehem who have been carving olive wood for three generations. The same hands that shape the larger nativity sets and crosses shape these little magnets too, same care, just smaller.

The olive wood itself comes from trees that get pruned annually. Nobody's cutting anything down. That's how it's been done here for a long time, and your order helps keep those families working. Factory-direct pricing means you're paying what it should cost, not what a wholesaler adds on top. That matters to me, at least.

Care Instructions

Olive wood's low maintenance. If it starts looking a little dry, rub a small drop of olive oil into it with a cloth and it comes right back. Don't soak it in water. That's about it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this actually carved in Bethlehem or just labeled that?

Yeah, genuinely. I've been working with these same families for years, my dad did before me. The carving happens there, the wood comes from there. We're not slapping a label on something made overseas, that'd be... I don't know, that'd defeat the whole point of what we're doing here.

What size is this magnet?

Fits in your palm. Roughly 2 inches across, give or take a bit depending on the piece since these are hand carved.

Is the olive wood real or is it just a finish on something else?

Real olive wood, not a veneer. You can actually see the grain variation between pieces, which is how I know a customer got a slightly darker one than what's in the photos sometimes. That's just the wood being wood.

Is it good for gifting or does it just come loose?

Pretty standard, comes in a small bag. Free shipping if you're over $100 in the US. Ships in a couple days usually.

Is the 'Jerusalem' engraving deep or does it look like it'll wear off?

It's engraved, not printed, so it's not going anywhere. Pressed right into the wood.
