Must-Have Handcrafted Wooden Nutcrackers

I received product in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

Last year I checked out the 15-inch tall German Nutcracker Grenadier and I could not believe I waited that long to start my nutcracker collection. I honestly poured all over the nutcrackers on the Erzgebirge website when I discovered the site and decided that I am going to buy myself one every year and I am going to start that tradition for my own kids.

Why shop from Erzgebirge for nutcrackers?

You can actually get a nutcracker for as low as $35 and the prices go up depending on the size and detail.

The nutcrackers come in a variety of colors, costumes and different heights so its easy to get a new one every year or buy a specific one for a gift for someone.

The products are high-quality decorative products from Germany and only from manufacturers who hold special certifications that guarantee quality. Each and every one different in their own design. There are ones for all different holidays and different colors.

They are so perfect though I cannot believe the craftsmanship that went it to making them!

The nutcracker is a unique piece of art that is one of the most well-known wooden crafts to originate from the Erzgebirge region of Germany. These are sold in German markets and now around the world.

You may think of nutcrackers as just painted soldiers but they actually come in all sorts of varieties so really you could display them year-round!

According to German folklore, nutcrackers were given as keepsakes to bring luck to the family and protect the home. It is said that they represent strength and power and watches over the family keeping evil spirits and danger away. Luckily Erzgebirge has so many to choose from!

Can he be used as an actual nutcracker? Yep but repeated use may chip the paint so I am choosing to use him strictly as decoration.

With the way these are packaged, they make perfect gifts and are stored away nicely.

Seriously these nutcrackers are amazing and I am so happy to finally have one. They are well worth the money to own a piece that will be proudly displayed and handed down through generations.
