Description

The Willow Tree Promise Family figurine captures three figures at the moment a family becomes real — two parents standing close, heads bowed together, cradling a newborn between them. The infant is tiny against the adults, held with the particular careful tenderness of people who are still getting used to this. Like all Willow Tree pieces, the figures carry no painted faces; Susan Lordi's design philosophy holds that posture tells the truth more reliably than expression, and in this case the bowed heads and sheltering arms say everything. The piece is finished in hand-painted cream and warm tan tones, standing approximately 22 centimetres tall, substantial enough to hold its own on any surface.

New baby gifts are often sweet but forgettable. This one is neither. Promise is the figurine that new parents keep on the dresser for years, that moves house with them, that their child will eventually notice and ask about. It is also an extraordinarily thoughtful gift for a couple's first anniversary as parents, or for a grandmother who wants to mark the arrival of a grandchild with something lasting. If you are looking for an anniversary gift package for the couple who just became a family of three, this figurine is a natural centrepiece around which to build the rest.

The Promise figurine arrives gift-boxed and ready to give. For those who want to round out the delivery with something indulgent and tactile, our collection of bath and body gifts gifts offers beautifully presented options that complement sentimental keepsakes.
