17" Steinbach Patriotic Baron Von Steuben Signed Christmas Nutcracker #ES1662 Overview



From The Steinbach Collection
Item #ES1662SIG

Steinbach Nutcrackers are the most cherished nutcrackers in the world and are handed down generation after generation. The Steinbach family started making nutcrackers in 1832 by purchasing a timber yard and operating a wood sawmill, which ran initially by water power and then by steam power.

"To produce one nutcracker," explains Herr Steinbach, "can involve up to 130 separate procedures. At one time, the curling and natural drying to the wood could take up to 3-4 years depending upon the piece."

We are proud to carry the Steinbach line of nutcrackers, and invite you to view all the pieces we have available. Whether you are starting a new collection or adding to your existing collection, you will love these time honored pieces.

Product Features:
A quaint historical tribute, this nutcracker commemorates the German-Prussian officer credited with helping to lead the Continental Army to victory in the American Revolution. He accomplished this by teaching the Army the essentials of military discipline, and instituting rigorous drilling practices.
