About This Magnet
It's small enough to disappear on a crowded fridge, but it never does. There's something about the cross and that carved "Jerusalem" underneath it that keeps drawing your eye back. I've watched people pick these up at the shop for the first time and just stand there for a second, turning it over in their hands.
This is a religious fridge magnet made from genuine olive wood, hand-carved by Christian artisan families in Bethlehem. Every piece comes out a little different because the wood is real and the hands shaping it are real. If you're looking for an olive wood magnet cross for sale that actually means something, this is it.
Measures about 2.3 x 1.5 inches. Strong magnet backing. Sits on a fridge, a locker, a filing cabinet. Small price, but it's the kind of thing people keep for years.

Perfect As a Gift
A pastor in Texas emailed us last year to say he'd been ordering these in batches for his congregation's outreach bags. "People always ask where it's from," he wrote. That's the thing with a magnet gift idea this simple. It starts conversations without trying to.
Works for almost any occasion, and at $3.50 it's an easy add-on to a bigger order. Free US shipping over $100 makes it even easier to grab a few at once for christian magnets to give out at events or services.

The Story Behind It
Most christian refrigerator magnets you find online are factory-stamped resin from somewhere with no connection to the place they claim to represent. These aren't. The olive wood comes from the Bethlehem area, from trees that get pruned every year anyway. Nobody's cutting down old growth for a two-inch magnet.
The families who carve these have been doing it for three generations. The craft moves from parent to child the same way it always has, mostly by watching and then by doing. I visited one of the workshops a while back and the woman running it learned from her father, who learned from his. That's not something I can put in a spec table, but it matters to me, at least a little.
Unlike mass-produced imports, these pieces carry actual marks of the hand that shaped them. The grain variations, the slight differences in tone from one piece to the next. That's not a flaw. That's just what real wood looks like.

Care Instructions
Olive wood is low maintenance. If it starts looking a bit dry, rub a small drop of olive oil into it with a cloth and it'll come right back. Don't soak it in water and don't leave it sitting in direct sun for long stretches. That's really about it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this actually from Bethlehem or just marketed that way?
Yeah, genuinely. I know that's what everyone says. But I've been doing this since my dad started the shop, and the families carving these are people I know by name. Same workshops, same street in Bethlehem. Every piece comes through us direct, no middleman repackaging stuff from somewhere else and slapping a label on it.
How big is this thing?
About 2 inches. Fridge magnet size, not tiny novelty size.
Does the wood grain look different on every one?
It does, that's just olive wood being olive wood. Some run darker, some have lighter streaks through them, we can't really control that. I've noticed the ones with more grain variation actually tend to be the ones people comment on more. Anyway, if you need something that looks identical to a photo, handmade olive wood isn't gonna be perfectly consistent, but honestly that's kind of the whole point.
Is there any kind of gift packaging with this?
It comes in a small gift box, so you're not just handing someone a magnet in a plastic bag. Pretty simple but it works, most people ordering these are giving them as gifts so we made sure it's presentable out of the box.
What's the shipping situation if I'm in the US?
Pretty standard, ships in a couple days usually. Free shipping if you're over $100.
