This red nutcracker hussar is from the Nutcracker series. The nutcrackers are made by hand in the Seiffener Volkskunst e.G. show workshop in a traditional and loving way.
The red nutcracker hussar is a traditional wooden figure that is used as a decoration especially at Christmas time. This impressive figure wears a red uniform decorated with gold accents, which indicates a military origin. The uniform is richly detailed and is accentuated by gold epaulettes that highlight his broad shoulders. The black belt that marks the figure’s waist is striking.
The nutcracker’s face is strikingly designed: he has blue eyes that appear lively, a bushy black moustache and thick eyebrows. Another characteristic feature is the gray beard, which gives him a wise and at the same time imposing appearance. His cap is black with gold and red decorations and a red plume that rises majestically.
The Nutcracker’s mouth can be opened, which is the traditional function of a nutcracker. His arms and legs are also detailed; the arms end in blue-accented cuffs, while the legs are white and black and end in black boots that stand on a round, natural wooden base. This base provides stability and harmoniously rounds off the overall appearance of the figure.
The entire Nutcracker Hussar exudes strength and authority, while at the same time conveying a festive and nostalgic atmosphere. The craftsmanship and the loving details make him a popular collector’s item and a central decorative element during the Christmas season.
