Angel of Hope Ornament - Willow Tree ®

Willow Tree is an intimate line of figurative sculptures representing sentiments of love, closeness, healing, courage, hope...all the emotions we encounter in life. "I remember when my husband and daughter or son played, laughed and tumbled together on the rug...or when all the grandkids piled onto my dad's back for horse rides...those moments of spontaneous play, of cuddling, tickling, being present together , became the foundation for their close relationships throughout the years" - Susan Lordi. The item is made in cast stone and hand-painted with lead-free paint. Supplied in a branded gift box and a gift tag with sentiment 'We've only just begun...forever my little one'. Not a toy or children's product. Intended for adults only.

“I love the idea of lighting a candle for someone, or for a wish, or a thought … keeping it alive, carrying it forward. So this angel is sheltering and protecting a small candle with a little gold-leafed flame. It’s important that the flame is small — sometimes it’s just a little flicker or a fleeting sign that can give you hope. Sometimes for me, focusing on seemingly insignificant things — events or happenings that I might ordinarily take for granted — it’s those things, those little miracles, which can give hope. I wanted Angel of Hope to be a positive piece. Kind of like the little spark that keeps us going”
