Description

Artist Susan Lordi hand carves the original of each Willow Tree® figure from her art studio in Kansas City, Missouri.This piece is cast from Susan's original carving, and then 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 the absence of facial features signify Willow Tree. It is Susan's hope that these pieces be meaningful to both the giver and receiver.

"This piece is all about the apple. I wanted it to symbolize many things—to stand out, be large, delicious, shiny. Obviously, it's a symbol for teacher appreciation, but the apple is also just a beautiful fruit! A metaphor for good health, for wisdom, for someone chosen for something big—for a special person who always gives the best of her or himself and makes a difference in the lives of others. I like that this piece is so open—I'll be interested to read how others interpret it." –Susan Lordi

The You're the Best! angel ornament is made of solid resin, stands 4 1/2 inches tall, and has a cord hanger. She holds in her hands a ripe, red apple. Her wings are of strands of formed wire.

Each original Willow Tree® sculpture is hand carved by artist Susan Lordi. Using family and friends as models, Susan’s goal is to capture a moment in time or express an intimate feeling. Pieces are cast from her original carving and individually painted by hand. Softly washed colors, carved and metal accents, and representative icons of nature add depth and sentimentality to this beloved line.
