This hand-blown glass ornament takes the shape of a nutcracker soldier in a red-and-gold military jacket with looping gold braid and epaulettes, a black top hat banded in gold with an X pattern, and a black mustache. He holds two drumsticks over a white, gold, and jewel-toned drum, with teal-blue trousers and black boots below, and a hanging loop set at the top of his hat.
Why this ornament: the drummer pose with a decorated drum gives him more detail than a simple standing soldier ornament; the rich red-and-gold glass finish captures the classic military nutcracker palette with a glossy, reflective shine; the teal-blue trousers add a bright accent color not typically seen on traditional wooden nutcrackers.
What's included: one hand-blown glass nutcracker soldier ornament with a built-in hanging loop.
Ready to hang straight from the box with no assembly needed, it is suited to a Christmas tree, garland, or wreath, and also stands well on its own on a shelf or mantelpiece.
A traditional gift for Christmas ornament collectors and nutcracker enthusiasts who want a glass version of the classic military nutcracker soldier.
