Vintage 1950's Italy Brass Nutcracker

Vintage 1950's Italy Brass Nutcracker Solid brass Mid Century Italian. With vintage patina. There are many similar to this one but there are definitely differences. The shape of the interior cracking jaws is the obvious originality. According to a high end seller on Pamono.com, this was hand made in Italy between 1950-59. It is priced at 239 euro there. This solid quality nutcracker is approx 6.5" long and 1.75" wide. The maker is not marked or mentioned that I have found. However the original sticker is in place. Collectors item or crack some nuts! If you’re a Baby Boomer or Gen X’er you more than likely had one of these sitting next to a giant bowl of walnuts on the fireplace. Good childhood memories See photos for details of condition Listing as brown gold to come up with brass as a color
