...from the time of Jesus!

All of my handmade olive wood pens come from the Holy Land in the nativity town of Bethlehem. Special care was given during the selection process of this exotic biblical wood to help ensure its quality. This is a beautiful wood with ligh brown color with dark grain that creates a wonderful contrast. Most incredible, is that these olive trees are over 2,000 years old and have been bearing fruit since the time of Jesus. Each pens arrives with a certificate of authenticity.
I assure you th at no trees were destroyed or damaged in the process of obtaining this wood. The wood is elected from the prunnings of the olive tree. The pruning process occurs each year to promote a healthy fruit bearing tree. The wood is then taken to limestone caves to be air dried. There, the wood slowly dries. It takes approximately three years for the wood to be dry enough to work into thepens I offer.
