Nutcracker Christmas ornaments bring two traditions to the tree — the classic Bavarian soldier guard and the Tchaikovsky ballet. Our collection covers traditional nutcracker soldiers in red, gold, and green, ballet characters (Clara, Sugar Plum Fairy, Mouse King, Drosselmeyer), and collectible series designs in mouth-blown glass from Old World Christmas and handcrafted folk art. Some nutcracker ornaments accept personalization — popular with dancers and ballet families. Nutcracker ornaments pair naturally with elf ornaments and Santa ornaments for a storybook tree.
