OUR COLLECTION — ASIA — JORDAN  356. OLIVE WOOD NATIVITY

Picture
This Nativity set was hand-carved in Jordan from olive wood. This wood has a distinctive grain, making each piece unique. The tallest wise man measures 7 inches tall.
​
The Glad Tidings group in Jordan includes two olive wood workshops: the men’s workshop and the ladies’ workshop. Eight women, including four deaf sisters and two women with physical disabilities, work there. A deaf man works in the men’s workshop. His wife was three months pregnant and had been in the hospital and he couldn’t find a job anywhere because of his disability. These artisans are thankful that Glad Tidings did not turn them away as so many others had.
