Corpus Christi Pendant Necklace Israel_Jerusalem_boy carrying with it the peaceThe Corpus Christi Necklace is carved from olive wood of the Holy Land, its grain carrying the story of the land itself. At its center rests a silver toned emblem of the Eucharist, the chalice holding the bread marked with IHS, the holy name of Jesus. Grapes and bread frame the cup, signs of the Eucharist and the gift of communion. This piece is made by the hands of artisans in Nazareth, preserving a tradition of faith through work and steady craft.
