The Holy Family

A child is born.

Brand: Willow Tree® by DEMDACO
Part Number: 26290

Celebrate the miracle of Christ's birth with The Holy Family, an intimate and beautifully sculpted Willow Tree® Nativity by acclaimed artist Susan Lordi. Created in response to collectors seeking a smaller-scale Nativity, this elegant one-piece sculpture captures the timeless story of Christmas with extraordinary warmth, tenderness, and reverence—perfect for displaying throughout the holiday season or all year long.

Standing 7.5 inches tall, this hand-painted resin sculpture beautifully portrays Mary, Joseph, and the baby Jesus united in a loving embrace. Every graceful gesture carries profound symbolism. Mary turns lovingly toward Joseph, while Joseph's protective arm, staff, and flowing cloak create a shelter around his young family. His hand gently raised above the Christ Child reflects an ancient gesture of blessing and divine protection, beautifully expressing the sacred responsibility of parenthood.

Susan Lordi's signature style allows emotion to shine through posture and movement rather than facial detail, inviting each family to experience the Nativity story in a deeply personal way. Richly layered hand-painted colors bring warmth and life to the sculpture while preserving the timeless simplicity for which Willow Tree® is beloved.

Susan Lordi shares the inspiration behind this cherished piece:

"This is a story from the past… but the overwhelming emotions of holding a new baby, starting a new family, and wanting to protect them forevermore are present today in every culture and every age. My hope is that the gestures of Mary and Joseph will represent these powerful feelings of love and protection."

Designed as the centerpiece of the Holy Family Collection, this sculpture is complemented by a graceful pierced curved metal backdrop, suggestive of a brilliant sky filled with twinkling stars. Four gentle animals stand watch nearby, offering warmth, companionship, and protection—echoing the humble beauty of the stable in Bethlehem.

Its compact size makes The Holy Family ideal for apartments, offices, bookshelves, mantels, bedside tables, or anyone who wishes to display a meaningful Nativity throughout the year without requiring a large display area.
