Content & Subject

Our Joyful Day Ornament by P. Buckley Moss is a numbered, limited edition porcelain ornament that beautifully captures the sacred elegance of love and commitment. Part of the Moss Ornament Collection and the Moss Religious Collection, this work radiates peace, devotion, and timeless joy — hallmarks of Moss’s deeply humanistic art.

Our Joyful Day OrnamentOur Joyful Day Ornament portrays a bride and groom standing side by side, united in serenity and grace. The bride, dressed in a flowing white gown, holds a delicate bouquet of long-stemmed flowers, symbolizing purity and new beginnings. The groom, in soft blue and black, stands protectively beside her, representing strength and partnership. The couple is framed by an ethereal border of pale blossoms — perhaps dogwoods or lilies — softly intertwined, evoking spiritual blessing and divine love.

Behind them, shades of pastel lavender, rose, and sky blue wash across the background, giving the scene a dreamlike quality. Moss’s minimalist brushwork and elongated figures emphasize tenderness and unity rather than ornamentation, allowing the emotion of the moment to take center stage.

Style & Technique

Painted in P. Buckley Moss’s signature watercolor and ink technique, Our Joyful Day Ornament combines flowing lines with subtle gradients of color, creating both motion and stillness. Moss’s mastery of soft pastels gives the artwork an angelic lightness, evoking both the physical beauty of a wedding and its spiritual significance.

Each porcelain ornament is hand-numbered and crafted with fine detail, its smooth surface enhancing Moss’s translucent washes of color. The circular design with its floral frame draws the viewer’s eye inward to the couple — a symbol of faith, devotion, and shared joy.

Each piece is gift boxed and includes a cord for hanging, or can be displayed on a tiny easel (sold separately). This elegant presentation makes it equally suited for seasonal display or year-round celebration of love and marriage.
