Demdaco Willow Tree Our Gift Figurine

Willow Tree hand-carved sculptures speak in quiet ways to heal, comfort, protect and inspire. Susan Lordi identifies emotions so important for us to convey, and renders them in simple, pure gestures. About Willow Tree, Susan says, "I try to keep the interpretation of Willow Tree open. I hope this makes it more personal, and allows the viewer to decide its meaning."

Message: "Our bright, joyful gift!"

Inspiration - Susan's explanation of the inspiration and creative process behind specific sculptures: Our bright, joyful gift! - Introduced Summer 2007

"I carved Our Gift to celebrate the exciting realization of suddenly becoming a family after the birth of a first child. The composition of mother and father forms a little protective circle around the baby. This piece fits well in the Reliquary, or next to it on a Coordinating Shelf (display pieces that are part of The Roses in my Garden)."
