Sail ho! Most sailors require limes and hard tack for their long journeys, ours also happens to enjoy nuts. He's in uniform, ready for his next voyage, and his seagull pal is ready , too. Handmade by artisans at the Christian Ulbricht Company (they've been making nutcrackers by hand in Germany's Erzgebirge Mountains, where wooden nutcrackers first originated, since 1928). This is a working nutcracker (the lever in back operates his jaws), made by hand of solid natural finish and glazed woods with faux fur plus fabric details and rope. About 9 1/2" tall x 4 3/4" wide x 4" deep. Handmade in Germany. 32-221 Show more
