Christmas Ornaments

Olive wood Christmas ornaments handcrafted by Christian artisans in Bethlehem, the town where Jesus was born.

Olive wood ornaments from Bethlehem

Every ornament on this page is cut and smoothed by hand from olive wood in Bethlehem. The grain runs from golden honey to deep brown, so no two ornaments are exactly alike. Each design comes from the Nativity story, as told in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke.

Single ornaments

Choose the Star of Bethlehem (8 × 8 cm), the Guiding Star, the Holy Family, the Bethlehem ornament, the Wise Men, the Shepherd or the Nativity with the shepherds. Other designs frame the Holy Family in a Christmas bell, a Christmas tree or a snow globe shape.

Ornament sets

The 5-piece set has five different designs, each with a small gold-tone hanging ring. The 9-piece set tells the Nativity story, from the shepherds and Wise Men to the Holy Family under the star.

Questions about our ornaments

Where are your ornaments made?

They are handcrafted from olive wood by Christian artisans in Bethlehem. NAZFAT® has worked directly with artisans in the Holy Land since 2003.

How long does delivery take?

Shipping is free worldwide and we dispatch the same or next day. After dispatch, delivery takes 5–14 business days in Europe and 7–21 business days to the USA and the rest of the world.

Will my ornament look exactly like the photo?

The design is the same, but olive wood is natural, so the grain and color are a little different on every piece.

Can I display the ornaments outside the Christmas season?

Yes. They also hang well on a window or a wall, and many people keep them as a keepsake of the Holy Land.
