Know before you buy
While this piece is built with traditional nutcracker mechanics, it is primarily designed as a decorative collectible. We recommend displaying it rather than using it to crack nuts to preserve its handcrafted finish and value.
Each piece is handcrafted in Germany by Christian Ulbricht, a brand renowned for its heritage in woodcraft. As a limited edition item, it reflects the specific quality standards and traditional techniques associated with authentic Erzgebirge craftsmanship.
Yes, the 19.7-inch measurement represents the total height of the nutcracker from the bottom of the base to the top of the figure. It is a substantial piece that works best on mantels, sideboards, or display shelves.
This model is part of a strictly controlled production run of only 2,500 units worldwide. Once these pieces are sold through, no further units of this specific design will be manufactured, making it a rare find for serious collectors.
To keep the wood and paint in good condition, simply dust the piece periodically with a soft, dry cloth or a clean, soft-bristled brush. Avoid using water, chemical cleaners, or polishes, as these can damage the hand-painted details and the natural wood finish.
