This figural nutcracker, crafted in Austria during the 1960s or 1970s, is a testament to traditional Viennese craftsmanship and the festive heritage of European holiday decor. Formed from polychrome-painted wood, it takes the shape of a classic soldier or guard, as seen in fairy tales such as 'The Nutcracker.' The primary hues are matte, saturated red across the torso and arms, accented by gold-painted buttons and cuffs. The nutcracker features light gray legs with a soft blue undertone, glossy black boots, and a tall black hat adorned with a gold circular insignia. The face is finely detailed with expressive blue eyes, a red nose, black eyebrows, and a distinct mustache, while the lower jaw is movable and finished with a plush light brown faux fur beard and sideburns. Hands display a natural light beige wood tone. The figure stands securely on a square green-painted base, with surface finishes predominantly matte, save for the lustrous black elements. The piece is preserved in very good, authentic condition, showing only minimal wear consistent with age—no significant defects, all original
