Woodworking has been an Ulbricht family tradition for over 90 years. Creating traditional wooden art that brings joy to people of all ages. Otto Ulbricht started the Otto Ulbricht‘s workshop for fine wooden crafts and toys in Seiffen, Germany in 1928. After World War II, Ulbricht and his family were forced to flee Seiffen in West Germany and finally settled in Bavaria where the company was re-established. In 1968, Otto passed the company down to his son Christian Ulbricht. When Germany reunited in 1990, Christian Ulbricht seized the opportunity and bought back his father’s original company in Seiffen where they continue to operate from today.
In Germany, wooden nutcrackers can be dated back to the 15th Century. One of the most recognized origin stories of German nutcrackers is that of a wealthy farmer who wanted ot find a more efficient way to open his walnuts. The farmer offered a reward to anyone who could find him a solution. A puppet maker took the challenge and created the first nutcracker with it's lever mouth.
