Blue Coat Soldier Nutcracker Ornament Old World Christmas 44171

Standing tall in his blue coat, this soldier nutcracker is a classic Christmas ornament. It's a lovely gift for nutcracker collectors, ballet dancers, and Nutcracker fans.

Nutcrackers were first carved by commoners as a joke, because it was considered fun to make a little wooden king or soldier do the menial work of cracking tough nuts. Today, nutcrackers are often associated with the Christmas holidays due to their whimsical nature and the very popular Nutcracker Suite ballet. From Assortment 44041.
