Jerusalem Cross Necklace (Olive Wood and White Mother · Piece BH 13012
Holy LandDetails
Luminous white shell anchors this pendant, mother of pearl set into a frame of golden olive wood in the form of the Jerusalem cross. The pairing is an old Bethlehem tradition: one material from the groves and one from the sea, joined in the emblem of the Holy City.
Artisans near the Church of the Nativity cut, inlay, and polish each necklace by hand, and no two show the same play of grain and shimmer. Tucked into a baptism basket, it becomes a first keepsake of faith, waiting quietly for the child to grow into it.
Free US shipping on orders over $75. Hand crafted in Bethlehem by the Bannoura family. Trusted by Catholic homes across America since 2000.
Materials + Care
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.
