Perfect As a Gift

A customer wrote to us last December. She'd ordered this statue as a holy family christmas gift for her mother, who'd just moved into a care home and left most of her things behind. Her mother keeps it on the windowsill next to her bed now. That note stayed with me.

This works as a holy family baptism gift, a holy family confirmation gift, or a holy family wedding gift for a couple starting a home together. It's small enough to wrap easily, meaningful enough to keep for decades. Free US shipping on orders over $100, and we ship worldwide direct from Bethlehem.

The Story Behind It

Most virgin mary statues you find online are factory-made somewhere without any connection to the story they're depicting. Ours aren't. This one was carved by a Christian artisan family in Bethlehem, the same city where Mary and Joseph sheltered on the night this whole story begins.

These families have been carving olive wood for three generations. The wood itself comes from annual pruning of living trees, so nothing gets cut down. The trees keep growing, the families keep working, and your order goes directly back to them. No distributor in the middle.

I've visited the workshops. I know the people behind the pieces. That matters to me, and I think if you hold this statue in your hands, you'll feel something of that in it too. It's a mary statue that carries its own history, at least to me.

Care Instructions

Olive wood is low maintenance. If it starts looking dry after a while, rub a small drop of olive oil into it with a cloth and it'll come right back. Don't soak it in water or leave it somewhere very damp. That's about it.
