Messenger Ornament

Bringing comfort and love from afar.

Brand: Willow Tree® by DEMDACO
Part Number: 28305

Offer a heartfelt reminder that love knows no distance with the Messenger Ornament by Willow Tree®. Beautifully sculpted by renowned artist Susan Lordi, this hand-painted ornament features a graceful figure in a flowing cream dress with a vibrant red cardinal resting gently on her shoulder—a timeless symbol of remembrance, hope, and the enduring connection we share with those we love.

Across many cultures and traditions, the appearance of a cardinal is often seen as a comforting sign that someone dear is near in spirit. Whether remembered through cherished memories, quiet moments of reflection, or the beauty of nature itself, the cardinal serves as a gentle messenger of love that continues long after parting.

Susan Lordi beautifully explains the inspiration behind this meaningful ornament:

"Sometimes we see something, and it evokes a feeling, a memory, a presence of one we miss. For some, seeing a cardinal in the backyard, so brilliantly red against winter sky and tree silhouette, signifies the spirit of one much loved. Birds are the perfect messengers; metaphors of hope and light… a little comforting connection point, bringing us closer to someone far away."

As a smaller version of the beloved Messenger figurine, this ornament brings comfort during the holidays while remaining equally meaningful displayed year-round on an ornament stand, wreath, memorial tree, or special keepsake display. Willow Tree's signature faceless design invites each person to discover their own personal meaning within the sculpture, making it a treasured gift of sympathy, remembrance, healing, and encouragement.

Packaged in an official Willow Tree® fitted gift box with the sentiment displayed on the attached hangtag, Messenger Ornament is ready for thoughtful gift-giving.
