Willow tree angels - figurines & nativities

Hoadley's Hallmark carries a substantial stock of various figurines, angels and nativity items from the Willow Tree Collection.  Because Willow Tree has such a wide array of collectable gifts we are of course unable to carry every item in the Willow Tree line of collectable sculptures.

Our in store stock of Willow Tree collectable figures consists of those items which are considered the most poplar and best selling Willow Tree sculptures.  If you want or need a particular Willow Tree item that is not in stock at Hoadley's Hallmark Store we would be very glad to special order any Willow Tree collectable that you desire.  

Willow Tree was introduced in January 2000. The line has grown to encompass those sentiments that we most want to express. To our friends, to our family, to our teachers; to those near and dear, to those far away.

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 sculptures are rendered so as to suggest elegance, simplicity, peace and serenity. Forms reveal their expressions through body gestures only... a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, a turn of the body. Emotions are left to the viewer to discern, which makes them personal and powerful. Willow Tree is an understated line that speaks in a compelling way.
