A gift to celebrate new beginnings, new babies, new families and the loving relationships that develop between parent and child, grandparent and child Willow Tree is a reminder of someone we want to keep close, or a memory we want to touch. Hand-carved figures reveal their expression through body gestures only a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, a turn of the body. Each piece is designed to be open to interpretation from the viewer. Willow Tree isnt so much about the tangible piece. It represents an emotion, or it marks a memory. Susan Lord. A gift of Willow Tree communicates beyond words.
