This one - piece sculpture, painted with richly layered colours, is ideal for those with limited display space, or who wish to display a nativity year - round. The expressive gestures of Mary and Joseph reveal their humanity, and portray their overwhelming emotion of love and protection for their newborn child.

Mary is turned in toward Joseph, sheltered by his right arm. Joseph’s staff and cloak form a protective shield around his new family. Joseph’s left hand, positioned above the head of baby Jesus, shadows the curve of Mary’s wrist. This is a historically symbolic gesture of blessing and protection.

About Willow Tree
Willow Tree is an intimate line of figurative sculptures that speak in quiet ways to heal, comfort, protect and inspire.
Artist Susan Lordi hand carves the original of each figure from her studio in Kansas City Missouri. Pieces are cast from her original carvings, and individually painted by hand. Expression is revealed through gestures only, a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, a turn of the body.

The simplicity of form and absence of facial features signify Willow Tree. It is Susan’s hope that these pieces be meaningful to both giver and receiver.
