Tenderness Journal SENTIMENT: Treasuring a quiet moment GIFT-GIVING SUGGESTIONS: A gift to celebrate new beginnings, new babies, new families... and the loving relationships that develop between parent and child, grandparent and child... Willow Tree is a reminder of someone we want to keep close, or a memory we want to touch. Hand-carved figures reveal their expression through body gestures only... a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, a turn of the body. Since 1999, American artist Susan Lordi has worked in partnership with DEMDACO to produce, market and distribute Willow Tree, her line of carved figurative sculpture. From her studio in Kansas City, Lordi hand carves the original of each figure, and often incorporates bas-relief carvings into accessory products. "I hope those of you who enjoy writing your thoughts and memories - or just keeping track of daily errands - find this journal unique, functional, and beautiful to use." -Susan Lordi Resin bas-relief carving of Tenderness figure affixed to front cover with sentiment "Treasuring a quiet moment" inscribed below carving. 8.5"h x 6"w. 152 lightly lined 60% recycled text-weight, stitched pages with hard-cover binding.

Inspired by old, classic books much handled and loved... Journals are rich dyed and embossed surfaces with the look of aged leather. Glints of gold leaf edging surround expressive Willow Tree gestures.
