Willow Tree Angel of Comfort, Sculpted Hand-Painted Figure

This is my ninth (9th) out of nine Willow Tree Angel figurines. I have dearly loved this collection since I first saw it about two years ago.I have always loved willow trees, they are so stately and majestic yet delicate as well. I can just see them swaying in the breeze, they move unlike any other tree. You wind up feeling so protected, surrounded by the umbrella of its branches. Like you are already halfway into a different world, one filled with sweet kindness and gentle goodness, where there is no fear, hatred or jealousy, only joy.My Willow Tree Angel figurines make me feel that same way. Every day Iook at them to refresh certain ideals in my head. I spent a couple of too short hours yesterday looking over my collection in more depth than usual. I took time to contemplate each piece and what it means to me. I rearranged the figurines into a different arrangement, and integrated my two new ones into the group. They fit in beautifully.The Angel of Comfort is a little boy holding a puppy. It looks to me like he just got the puppy, he is hugging it with such joy, and he has his cheek resting on its head. The puppy looks so eager to play, I know in a moment they will be off and running. I can just see those ears flapping (the dogs).This one and Kindness Girl (which I also just got yesterday) are my two new favorites.There are quite a few Willow Tree Angels now. You should not have any trouble at all finding one or more that resonate with you.They are also great as gifts. I know sometimes professionals have very strict limits on giving or recieving gifts of value. Many of these are about $15 to $20, which should be well within any guidelines. I have given these, more than once or twice, as gifts of appreciation. They have been enthusiastically recieved!They also are highly appropriate for family or friends, as comforting or sentimental gifts. It seems to be about on the level of handmade gifts, only better. One of these can be a very special gift indeed.

The Willow Tree Angel of Comfort is a truly heartfelt and meaningful piece, offering a gentle embrace of love and remembrance for those who have cherished a beloved pet. The hand-sculpted design beautifully captures the deep bond between humans and their furry companions, making it a perfect tribute for pet lovers, dog owners, or anyone grieving a loss.Holding this figure in my hands, I could feel the comfort and warmth it symbolizes—a quiet reminder that love never fades, and memories live on. The soft, peaceful expression of the angel, cradling a small dog with tenderness, evokes a sense of solace and healing.Whether given as a gift of sympathy, a keepsake to honor a special pet, or a token of support for someone facing loss, this figurine speaks volumes without saying a word. It is a beautiful, touching tribute that brings a sense of peace and love to any space.

I ordered this for my mom after her dog passed away. It was beautiful and great quality. Not too big and not too small.

I bought this for a friend who just lost her beloved pet of 14 years. I chose this for her because she also collects Willow Tree. It is a quality addition to her collection and is a beautiful gift that I'm happy to give.

I purchased the Comfort Angel. I gave it to a friend who recently lost her sister. What a wonderful keepsake, better than flowers that wilt & die. Beautiful to display. Well crafted. My recipient will love it. It has so much meaning.

Anything that can ease the agony of grief, even for a moment is a true gift. Our beloved Old English Bulldog, Harley passed away recently and it's been a terrible blow, he was my heart for fourteen years and I, along with my husband and our other dog Elvis are each adjusting to life without Harley as best we can. Shortly after his death it was here on Amazon that I found the right Urn, the name plate a wonderful stone marker and a few other items, the kind you dread having to buy one day but when that fateful day arrives you're pleased to find that there are offerings that can soothe a wounded heart and honor your fallen companion.When I saw this piece, I knew it belonged next to the Urn - it's presence is a gentle reminder of the unshakable bond and the pure, unconditional love between human being and animal. This piece is meant for those of us who understand the great joy of sharing our life with a four legged companion and the price of enduring such horrific grief when we lose them - which we inevitably must pay.It really was love at first sight, I'm sure like all art the meaning is deeply personal and different for all of us, for me this little statue is an Urn angel, a lovely expression of devotion and an immediate source of comfort.The piece is well made, it's solid, well weighted and sound - it's crafted with great attention to detail and is of superb quality. The piece arrives boxed and within a foam encasement. There are two small cards about the piece, the Willow Tree line and the artist. Perfect as a gift of condolence and equally so as a gift to yourself.

Bought this for a sympathy gift, it is beautiful!

It’s a great item to give some who recently lost their dog. The person was very touched by it.
