The Nutcracker Mountain Academician has a striking and traditional appearance. He wears a black uniform jacket with gold details. The jacket is decorated with red epaulettes attached to the shoulders. The collar of the jacket is also black and stands out from the rest of the clothing due to the gold belt. The Mountain Academician has a wide, grey-white mane that falls from his hat. This hair is long and falls down to his shoulders.
The facial expression is characteristic of Nutcracker: his blue eyes are large and striking, while the eyebrows are light grey and curved. He wears an imposing moustache, which is in a dark grey tone and perfectly matches his serious facial expression. His teeth are shown in an even row, contrasting with the red lips. These emphasize the mechanical function of the Nutcracker, which is represented by the mouth.
The Nutcracker’s tall, black hat, decorated with a gold pattern, is particularly striking. Two crossed hammers decorate the front of the hat. Two feathers are attached above the hat, one in black and one in yellow, which give the mountain academy graduate a particularly noble and festive character. In his right hand he holds a long black staff, which also has gold decorations.
The mountain academy graduate’s trousers are white and contrast strongly with the black boots he is wearing. The base of the nutcracker is round and green, so that it stands stable. The entire figure appears both traditional and festive thanks to its choice of colors and the detailed design.
