Olive wood from Israel has been used for religious items for centuries. Each mezuzah carries its own natural grain and tones, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. For more Judaica from Israel, explore our judaica collection.
Using Your Olive Wood Mezuzah
As a Doorpost Mezuzah
This mezuzah is designed to be mounted on the doorpost of a home or room. Fix it on the right side of the door as you enter, positioned at an angle with the top tilted inward toward the room, in the traditional manner.

As a Display Piece
Beyond the doorpost, a polished olive wood mezuzah can be displayed on a shelf or in a cabinet as a piece of Judaica. The carved motifs and natural wood tones make it visually distinctive.
