Know before you buy

While the exact weight isn't specified, the cast iron material gives it a substantial, high-quality feel that prevents it from tipping over easily on a shelf or mantel.
Yes, like a traditional nutcracker, it features a lever mechanism that operates the jaw, allowing it to function as both a decorative piece and a tool.
Cast iron can be abrasive. We recommend placing it on a felt pad or a decorative holiday runner to protect your surfaces from potential scratches.
