Description from the seller

Olivewood bust of the Holy Mary.
Israel, the Holy Land, circa 1980-1990

A beautiful decorative wooden statue, a hand-carved bust of the Holy Mary, also known as the Madonna. Such sculptures are often made from olivewood, a material known for its warm color and the way the natural grain of the wood highlights the lines of the garment.

Features of the statue:
Style: The statue often features a stylized design, sometimes influenced by the Art Deco style, as seen in the clean, vertical lines.
Origin: Many of this type of olivewood statues are hand-carved in the Holy Land (such as Bethlehem or Jerusalem).
Symbolism: The pose with the hands crossed or folded over the chest is a traditional depiction of Mary in prayer or contemplation.
Dimensions: 21 cm high, 13 cm wide, and 6.5 cm deep.
Condition: in good condition, of course with signs of use. A small crack in the hand from drying (photo).
Photos are part of the description.
These were taken under artificial lighting, colors may vary.
It will be well packed and sent by registered mail.
