The original Nativity is beautifully complemented by Three Wisemen and Shepherd and Stable Animals. The addition of the unique Crèche brings a striking presence to the home during the holidays. Other pieces that work wonderfully with the Nativity include Peace on Earth, Angel of Prayer, Angel of Healing and Celebrate. Placing an angel on the Angel Stand adds height and interest to the display.
I purchased these as gifts for my daughters. Both of them collect Willow Tree and have most of the Christmas Manger. The Creche will be a most welcomed addition to their collection.
My family gave these items as a shower/wedding gift to our cousin. So every Christmas when they set them out they will remember us and our gatherings as kids at Grandpa and Grandmas

Several years ago, I purchased the entire set of the manger, wise men, Mary, Joseph, Jesus, animals - the whole deal, but it only had one star. This year I purchased the star backdrop for my family and it is so lovely. I know it will stay in our family for generations to come.

Remember the awe and wonder of the Christmas story each year with this beautiful 6-piece Willow Tree Nativity Set. Set Includes Joseph, Mary, Baby Jesus, Shepherd, Donkey and 2 Sheep. Susan Lordi's art reflects our relationships with people and the world around us. Her keen observation of the human form is further inspired by ballet, modern dance, nature, and her personal experiences with family and friends. These influences are revealed in her Willow Tree? sculptures, from which emotion is communicated through gestures only.Artist Susan Lordi hand carves each original Willow Tree sculpture. Using family and friends as models, Susan tries to capture a moment in time, or express a feeling. Pieces are cast from her original carving, and then individually painted by hand. Softly washed colors, carved and metal accents, and representative icons of nature mark Susan's work
The beginning of my younger daughter's collection - she loves the Willow Tree Nativities that her big sisters have!

I ordered one for myself and one for a wedding gift, but found out the mothers of the couple gave it as well. So I gave a check instead, and will save this for my mom's birthday.

New Addition to the Nativity! -July 2007
Now in its eighth year, Willow Tree continues to grow, attracting new and familiar customers with expressive art forms that communicate beyond words. Susan Lordi hand carves each original figure. Using family and friends as models, Susan tries to capture a moment in time or express a feeling. I want to create a pure form that speaks through gesture. Willow Tree isn't so much about the tangible piece. It represents an emotion, or it marks a memory.

The Christmas Story “The Christmas Story is a story from the past .. but the overwhelming emotions of holding a new baby, starting a new family, and wanting to protect them forevermore are present today in every culture and every age. My hope is that the gestures of Mary and Joseph will represent these powerful feelings of love and protection.” – Susan Lordi
Willow Tree hand-carved sculptures speak in quiet ways to heal, comfort, protect and inspire. Susan Lordi identifies emotions so important for us to convey, and renders them in simple, pure gestures. About Willow Tree, Susan says, "I try to keep the interpretation of Willow Tree open. I hope this makes it more personal, and allows the viewer to decide its meaning."
