With Affection

I love our friendship!

Brand: Willow Tree® by DEMDACO
Part Number: 26109

Celebrate the unconditional love of friendship with Willow Tree® With Affection, a heartwarming sculpture by renowned artist Susan Lordi. Thoughtfully designed to honor the quiet comfort, loyalty, and companionship that faithful friends—and beloved pets—bring into our lives, this charming figurine beautifully expresses the joy of relationships built on trust, kindness, and unconditional acceptance.

Gracefully holding a cuddly golden cat close to her heart, With Affection symbolizes the unique bond shared between people and the pets who love us without judgment. It also celebrates those cherished friendships that enrich our lives with encouragement, laughter, and unwavering support. Whether given to a lifelong friend, a devoted pet lover, or someone who has simply been there through every season of life, this sculpture quietly says, "I love our friendship."

Like every Willow Tree® sculpture, With Affection communicates emotion through gentle posture and simple form rather than facial expression. Susan Lordi's signature artistry allows every recipient to discover personal meaning within the sculpture, making it a timeless keepsake that honors the many forms friendship can take.

Susan Lordi beautifully explains the inspiration behind this beloved design:

"Somehow our pets sense—they just know—how we feel. And totally accept us, in whatever emotional or physical state we appear. They teach us about friendship and patience and inner peace. They support us with loyalty, softness, an independent spirit and expressive gaze. It is true that animals have a sixth sense. It is the sense of love, unconditionally."

Each Willow Tree® figurine begins as an original hand-carved sculpture by Susan Lordi in her Kansas City studio before being cast in resin and individually hand-painted. Delicate metal wire wings and flowing neutral tones create an elegant, timeless keepsake that complements every decorating style.

Standing 5 inches tall, With Affection is perfectly sized for display on a bookshelf, desk, bedside table, mantel, or office, serving as a daily reminder of the friendships and faithful companions that make life richer.
