The Marching Band Drummer Nutcracker by Christian Ulbricht This stunning hand carved nutcracker is dressed in the fine attire of a marching band drummer. His outfit features a large black marching band style hat with a golden star medallion in the center, a light red jacket and belt with white cuffs, golden buttons and accents, cream colored white pants and tall black boots. This cheerful marching drummer holds his sticks above the drum as he plays and marches along with the band beating his snare drum. The glaze brushed over this nutcracker brings out the beautiful details in the wood grain. Q: Can the mouth move like traditional nutcrackers?A: Yes, the mouth can move using the classic lever on the back, though it’s meant for display, not for cracking nuts. Q: Where is this nutcracker made?A: It is handcrafted in Germany’s Erzgebirge region, famous for its long-standing nutcracker-making tradition. Q: What does the glaze finish do?A: The glaze enriches the nutcracker’s wood tones and protects the carving, giving it a refined, polished look. #32 611
