Perfect for collectors, Christmas lovers and more, Steinbach nutcrackers are a great addition to any holiday display.
History of Nutcrackers

These wooden nutcrackers take on the shape of soldiers, knights, kings and more, celebrating a tradition that has been around since at least the 15th century. The first German nutcrackers Steinbach made were considered to be a good luck symbol in Germany, and according to folklore, a puppet-maker won a nut cracking contest by creating a doll with a mouth for a lever to crack the nuts. While modern nutcrackers maintain this lever system to open and close the mouth, most nutcrackers sold today, like the ones at Christmas Tree Hill, are purely decorative. Steinbach nutcrackers come in a variety of designs ranging from traditional soldier-style nutcrackers to snowmen nutcrackers, Santa nutcrackers and more. Many designs include a touch of German style, giving Steinbach nutcrackers a distinctive appearance.
