Nutcrackers are the landmarks of the famous Erzgebirge manufactory Christian Ulbricht from Seiffen. They are the company's flagship and are hard to beat in their variations.

Legendary Nutcracker Star King

The Nutcracker as the Star King comes from an old legend. He also set out on a journey, guided by the star of Bethlehem, to find the child in the manger. But all his gifts for the newborn found other owners, because they needed the gifts more urgently. So he did good to other people on his way, which was in the spirit of Jesus Christ. This beautiful story tempted Christian Ulbricht to create, this beautiful nutcracker.

Midnight blue and silver predominant colors of the Star King

A nutcracker of superlatives. The magnificent details do credit to a star king. Only white and midnight blue as well as silver accents make this nutcracker something special. The star-studded jacket, which is also adorned with a sparkling belt and silver shoulder pieces, is worthy of a king. The midnight blue crown is decorated in silver and a star with a gemstone stands out at the front. White pants and feet in black shoes with silver clasps round off the perfect image of the Star King. In his right hand he holds his silver sceptre with stars and a sparkling stone.
