This olive wood house blessing in 15 × 10 cm format shows praying hands and the German inscription “Gott segne unser Haus” (“God bless our house”). It belongs in the entrance area, the living room or on the wall of a new home.
A house blessing on the wall is an old custom: a visible prayer for everyone who lives in the house and comes and goes. Olive wood suits this, because olive trees belong to the biblical landscape, and since the story of Noah the olive branch has been a sign of peace. According to our data, the wood comes from Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. You will find more pieces made from this wood underOlive wood from Bethlehem.

Because the grain and shade of a natural material vary, every house blessing is slightly different. As a gift for a wedding or a house move it says more than a bunch of flowers, and it suits anyone who wants to place their home consciously under God's blessing.
The house blessing is blessed by a Catholic priest in our warehouse; a business-card-sized certificate showing the date of the blessing is included. Shipping: Amazon's logistics network – free within Germany, €5.90 to Austria and France; Italy €6.90, Spain €6.90; 30-day returns.
