Olive Wood and the Bible Olive trees are native to Israel as well as other regions in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, but Bethlehem is the only place in the world where original, handcrafted olive wood products are made. The Bible contains several passages describing the work of one’s hands. In the Book of Exodus, Moses set out to find the most skilled tradesmen in various professions to help with the construction of the tabernacle, as can be found in Exodus 35:35: “He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as engravers, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers–all of them skilled workers and designers.”

Odeh Olive Wood, Bethlehem Since 1983, located in the heart of Bethlehem, the family-run Odeh Olive Wood Factory has created some of the world’s most beautiful handmade olive wood art. From the start, Odeh’s mission has been to preserve the unique beauty and spirit of their designs, where the family’s skill and craftsmanship has been handed down from father to son. Devout Christians, the Odeh family started out in a humble one-room workshop, and today, boasts a fully operational facility with a team of 13 professional olive wood craftsmen. To create their hand carved olive wood pieces, Odeh use only olive branches carefully pruned from local olive groves, never cutting down the trees, to preserve them for generations to come. The branches are dried for a year or more before the wood becomes ready for use. Masters of their craft, Odeh carefully select, dry, and carve each and every piece to showcase the beautiful grains of the natural wood. The olive tree is a symbol of persistence and permanent existence, where pure olive wood represents the ancient past, as much as it is a promise of a better future. A pioneer in handcrafted olive wood art, the Odeh Factory has earned its reputation for producing exceptionally exquisite, high-quality designs. Their products have made way to several international and European exhibitions, where they were showcased as world leaders in olive wood art from the Holy Land.
