ORIGINAL acrylic Christmas Nutcracker Soldiers on Round Wood Ornament Disc

In German tradition, nutcracker dolls are symbols of good luck, frightening away malevolent spirits. While nearly all nutcrackers from before the first half of the 20th century are functional, a significant proportion of modern nutcrackers are primarily decorative, and not able to crack nuts. Nutcrackers are also a part of German folklore, serving as protectors of a house. Ornaments are not just for trees anymore! Tying an unique adornment onto the bow of your present package instantly makes it boutique worthy. This flat wood ornament has been hand painted with high quality professional artist acrylics and sealed with 3 coats of a high quality archival varnish. It measures 3 3/4” wide x 4 3/8” tall. Jute string is added for hanging. This is original art and should be treated like any fine art by cleaning with a soft damp cloth (no cleaners) and keeping out of direct sunlight.
