{"product_id":"olive-wood-guardian-angel-plaque","title":"Bethlehem Olive Wood Guardian Angel Plaque in Natural Bark","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eBethlehem olive wood Guardian Angel plaque\u003c\/strong\u003e is carved within a natural slice of olive wood, with the original dark bark preserved around the outer edge. The pale inner wood forms a simple silhouette of a praying angel with bowed head and wings, creating a warm Christian keepsake with the natural character of the Holy Land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring approximately \u003cstrong\u003e5.1 × 3.9–4.7 in (13 × 10–12 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e and weighing approximately \u003cstrong\u003e5.3 oz (150 g)\u003c\/strong\u003e, each plaque has its own individual bark edge, wood grain and natural shape. It is presented in a \u003cstrong\u003ePiece of Holy Land branded gift box\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003eCertificate of Authenticity\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it ready to give for a Baptism, birth, First Communion or other special Christian occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eA Guardian Angel from Bethlehem\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe angel is carved into the lighter heartwood at the center of the natural olive wood slice, surrounded by the darker bark of the branch. Its bowed head, praying hands and wings create a gentle image of \u003cstrong\u003eprayer, protection and watchful care\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAngels hold an important place throughout the Bible, and the idea of God's angels watching over and guarding his people has long made the \u003cstrong\u003eGuardian Angel\u003c\/strong\u003e a meaningful Christian symbol, particularly for children and families. Psalm 91:11 speaks of God commanding his angels “to guard you in all your ways.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarved from olive wood in \u003cstrong\u003eBethlehem\u003c\/strong\u003e, the plaque also carries a natural connection to the land of Christ's birth, where angels form an unforgettable part of the Nativity story and announce the birth of Jesus to the shepherds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eNatural Olive Wood with Original Bark\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original \u003cstrong\u003enatural bark\u003c\/strong\u003e is preserved around the perimeter rather than being removed to create a perfectly uniform shape. This gives the plaque its rustic appearance and creates a striking contrast between the rough, dark exterior and the smooth, pale olive wood surrounding the angel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause olive wood is a natural material, \u003cstrong\u003eeach plaque is unique\u003c\/strong\u003e. Grain, bark texture, coloration, shape and dimensions can vary slightly from piece to piece. These variations are part of the character of natural olive wood rather than imperfections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eA Christian Gift Ready to Give\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis Guardian Angel plaque is especially well suited as a \u003cstrong\u003eChristian gift for a child or family\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its compact size makes it appropriate for a nursery, child's bedroom, prayer corner, bedside table or family devotional space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt can make a meaningful gift for a \u003cstrong\u003eBaptism or christening, newborn baby, First Communion, Confirmation, birthday, Christmas or house blessing\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is also a thoughtful gift from parents, grandparents, godparents or sponsors who want to give a Christian keepsake connected to Bethlehem and the Holy Land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eBranded Gift Box \u0026amp; Certificate of Authenticity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe plaque arrives presented in a \u003cstrong\u003ePiece of Holy Land branded gift box\u003c\/strong\u003e measuring approximately \u003cstrong\u003e5.5 × 7.1 in (14 × 18 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Combined with the natural olive wood and Bethlehem connection, it creates a memorable gift that can remain with the recipient for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eFor a Nursery, Child's Room or Prayer Space\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt approximately \u003cstrong\u003e5.1 in (13 cm)\u003c\/strong\u003e tall, the plaque is compact enough for smaller devotional spaces while remaining large enough for the carved angel and natural bark to be clearly visible.
