Willow Tree figures
 The Willow Tree range of products comprises simple yet expressive figures. The sculptures are distinctive in that they have no facial features but rely on the pose of the body, the position of the hands and the tilt of the head for expression.
They are castings derived from original carvings by Susan Lordi and then hand painted. Ideal as gifts for special occasions or as expressions of friendship, the range includes single figures or multiple figures. Come and see for yourself.
