DESCRIPTION

Willow Tree - Chrysalis Figurine Sentiment:  Protect and cherish; give wings to fly Colour(s): Wooden appearance Material(s):  Resin Measurement(s): Height 23 cm Artist: Susan Lordi “A chrysalis is the protective covering in which a caterpillar develops into a butterfly. The title is a metaphor for the relationship between a mother and her teen-age daughter — a time of letting go, in support of emerging independence. A mother’s first response is to protect her child. But the greater gift is to provide the love and trust that helps her daughter find wings to fly. The emphasis on this piece is on the daughter. It’s her emerging, her transformation, her unfolding. The title is illustrative of this particular time of life.”    (Susan Lordi) 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. Manufacturer: Willow Tree GTIN: 638713261533 EAN: 638713261533 UPC: 638713261533
