Product Description
Kurt Adler 17-1/2-Inch Limited Edition Steinbach William Shakespeare Nutcracker: Home & Kitchen. Nutcrackers in the form of wooden carvings of a soldier, knight, king, or other profession have existed since at least the 15th century, and the Steinbach family has been creating their uniquely designed wood-carved nutcrackers for most of two centuries. Add a timeless reminder of Christmas to your home with this exclusive limited edition Steinbach wood-carved nutcracker, imported from Germany by Kurt Adler. Only 7,500 pieces of this design were created, making this nutcracker a desirable collector's item as well as a family heirloom to be treasured for years. This delightfully realized nutcracker brings to life the famous playwright William Shakespeare, clad in a regal burgundy velvet cape and carrying a collection of plays in one hand and an inkwell in the other. Standing 17-1/2 inches tall, he's a great addition as a table's centerpiece or as a decorative accent to a bookshelf. The Kurt Adler company celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2006, and it has been importing Christmas ornaments from around the world since 1950.
