What are the dimensions of the nutcracker?

The nutcracker stands 30cm tall, with a base measuring approximately 7x8cm.

What material is the nutcracker made of?

The nutcracker is made of wood.

Can this nutcracker be used outdoors?

No, this is strictly an indoor decoration. Exposure to outdoor elements can cause damage.

How should I clean the nutcracker?

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquids or harsh chemicals.

Is this suitable for children?

Troubleshooting

Nutcracker is wobbly on its base.

Ensure the base is on a perfectly flat surface. If the base itself is uneven, it may require minor adjustment or shimming.

Jewelled jacket appears loose.

Gently try to re-secure the jewel with a small amount of appropriate craft glue. Avoid excessive force.

Paint appears chipped or damaged.

For minor chips, a small amount of red acrylic paint can be carefully applied. For significant damage, professional restoration might be considered, or it may be best to use it in a less prominent display area.
