Nutcrackers have a long history, dating back to the 15th century in Germany. Originally designed as functional tools for cracking nuts, they later became popular decorative items, often taking on the form of soldiers, kings, and other characters. The famous German author E.T.A. Hoffmann wrote the story "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" in 1816, which was later adapted into the popular ballet, "The Nutcracker."
There are many companies that produce nutcrackers, including Christian Ulbricht and Kurt Adler. Christian Ulbricht is known for its traditional German-style nutcrackers, while Kurt Adler produces a wide range of nutcrackers, including licensed nutcrackers based on popular characters.
Nutcrackers are typically made from wood, although some may feature additional materials, such as fabric or metal accents.
While traditional nutcrackers were designed to crack nuts, many decorative nutcrackers are not functional for cracking nuts and are meant for display purposes only.
