Know before you buy
This piece stands 20 inches tall, making it a substantial centerpiece. Because of its height and musical features, it is best suited for a mantel, entryway table, or a prominent spot in a holiday display where it can be easily seen and heard.
The water globe is integrated into the hat and comes ready to display. As with all water globe products, it should be kept indoors and away from extreme temperatures to prevent the liquid from freezing or clouding.
No, this item is designed exclusively for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements, such as moisture or freezing temperatures, could damage the internal musical mechanism and the water globe.
The musical and animation functions are battery-operated. Please ensure you have the appropriate batteries on hand, as they are typically not included with the unit.
The nutcracker plays the melody when activated. It is designed to provide a festive auditory experience, but it is not intended to play music indefinitely.
The primary structure of the nutcracker is crafted from durable resin, which allows for the intricate detailing found in the Hollywood Nutcrackers collection. The hat features a glass or high-quality plastic water globe component.
