Artistry in the Holy Land's Olive Wood
Handcrafted Treasures from Bethlehem
Welcome to Olive Wood Arts, where the natural beauty of Holy Land olive wood meets generations of skilled craftsmanship.
Late Nimir G. Rishmawi (Pictured here) founded Olive Wood Arts in Bethlehem, in the Holy Land. He handcrafted olive wood for more than 50 years.
While our work fully adopts his style, we still have some pieces of his work. They will be featured on this site later.
Carved with love, brought to you with passion!
