Treen Nutcracker

Hello Jim,

 

Welcome to the Forum.

 

Nice photo.

 

It's interesting. The majority of wooden nutcrackers were made as an example of a woodcarver's skill & even if functional were generally not meant to be used for cracking nuts. If you look @ 19th Century photos of them done in Central Europe where a lot of them came from you will often notice a plain steel nutcracker nearby. Present but discreetly almost not noticed.

 

The same w/ fancy cast iron & brass 1's.

 

Best Regards,

 

Michael
