Budded Cross Necklace (Olive Wood and White Abalone) · Piece BH 13700
Holy LandAbalone shell glows in a way glass and stone cannot, and the white abalone set into this budded cross gives it a soft, pearled light. Around the inlay, olive wood from the groves near the Church of the Nativity supplies the warmth, each arm closing in three rounded buds for the Holy Trinity.
The pendants are made in the Bannoura family workshop in Bethlehem, where shell inlay has been a household craft for generations. For someone entering the Church through RCIA, a cross made a short walk from the place of Christ's birth says welcome in a way words rarely manage.
Free US shipping on orders over $75. Hand crafted in Bethlehem by the Bannoura family. Trusted by Catholic homes across America since 2000.
Size: pendant about 1.4 inches tall.
Each piece is hand carved from genuine Holy Land olive wood, prized for its warm tone and one of a kind grain. Because olive wood is a living natural material, no two pieces are ever exactly alike. Dust gently with a soft dry cloth and keep your piece away from direct sunlight, water, and heat so its natural beauty lasts for generations.
