Description

Christian Ulbricht Doctor Nutcracker — West Germany, 14.5" Oak

Handcrafted “Holzkunst Christian Ulbricht” doctor nutcracker, made in West Germany, circa late 1970s–1980s.

Maker’s burn mark to underside reads “Holzkunst Christian Ulbricht – Handmade in West-Germany,” and the original hang tag remains attached. A classic Erzgebirge figure with charming display presence—perfect for nutcracker, German folk art, or holiday collections.
