raftsmen use this olive wood to create all types of religious items.  It could be something as simple as a cross with a leather strap for hanging around your neck to an elaborate hand carved statue for your bedroom dresser.  These craftsmen never stop generating new ideas.  Some of the hand carved items can be quite expensive.  Others are laser engraved and cut to form exotic shapes with very detailed images.  Some people wish to personalize the gifts with their own selected images and sayings adding a special personalized touch to the gift.  It is unlikely that you will find hand carved or engraved gifts in your local gift shop which can be personalized, but you can easily find them on the internet by searching for "engraved olive wood religious items."  This type of religious gift is becoming more popular everyday.
