Nativity and Manger Willow Tree figurines

Starting bid
Shepherd and Manger animals, widest: 9 "
Nativity scene (10 figures , tallest: 9"
-----------
Willow Tree figurines emerged from the creative mind of artist Susan Lordi in January 2000, a line that instantly resonated with collectors for their simplicity and profound symbolism. Each figurine starts its life as an original hand-carved piece by Lordi herself, using clay as the medium. The initial sculptures are meticulous and intimate, reflecting emotional states that connect universally with people. From these, castings are made to produce the resin figurines that find their way into homes worldwide.
The distinctiveness of Willow Tree lies in its hand-painted finish and absence of facial features, a deliberate design that allows you to project your personal stories onto them. This creative choice has made Willow Tree pieces unique in the world of collectibles, crafting figurines that are personal and customizable in emotional resonance, if not in physical design.
