Willow TreeWillow Tree Angel's Embrace Ornament, Hold Close That which we Hold Dear, for Baptisms, New Grandparents, Caregivers, Nurses, Remembrance, Expression of Healing, Love, Sculpted Hand-Painted Figure

My husband found this and wanted to use it as a memorial for a lost pregnancy - it had him in tears (at work, mind you) as soon as he saw it, mostly because the child in the ornament is cuddling the angel in the exact same manner that our Rainbow Baby cuddles into my shoulder. He shared it with me and I, too, was in tears almost immediately. Aside from the sentimentality, this ornament is the perfect ornament for a Christmas tree - it's delicate, but sturdy. It's the perfect size and SUPER lightweight. I was a little worried about this as Willow Tree products are made of solid wood and tend to be very heavy. The angel's wings are made of wire, but will hold up to being pushed on with a small amount of pressure. If you have little ones around, don't worry - I'm pretty sure this ornament would easily withstand falling off a Christmas tree (although probably not being accidentally stepped on). I'll definitely be keeping the box it came in to store it - the shape of the ornament is cut out of the included styrofoam perfectly, so I'm not the least worried about it being stored safely throughout the year when not on my Christmas tree.

My sister-in-law (sister) and my brother lost their first baby. I try to find a special "Angel ornament" for one of her +\- 55 trees indoor when we go out. Angel tree, my favorite. Well, I kept going back to this one, it just said everything I was feeling. They don't really talk about her too much since 1971 (newborn, seemed so healthy but only was with them not quite a day), but she's always on my mind when I go out there. I checked with my nephew to see what he thought and he said "sure!" All I needed to know. This gorgeous carved Angel holding a baby says everything I always wanted to say and does so much more. What a talent and her studio is in our City proper, so received it next day. I love, 💘, love it!!!

First time mama gift at Christmas! She loved it

I love this ornament. I got it for my mom who is a grandmother and it’s the perfect addiction to her tree. I used to always get these every year from my mom so this made it so special to give to her this time.

Very sweet great craftsmanship.

I got this for my wife because we just welcomed our first grand baby. She has other figurines but thus is the first ornament. She really likes it and the quality and craftsmanship is just as expected. It also came securely packaged and arrived quickly.

Just as described

My daughter collects these and her little miracle preemie baby boy is just that age/size now. We gave it to her for her birthday and she absolutely loves it! For us, it brings back so many memories of how far her sweet boy has come!
