Carl Auböck Nutcracker

A classic, mid-century piece, the Carl Auböck Nutcracker is an elegant and robust addition to any household. Auböck – the acclaimed Austrian designer whose playful, practical objects made him an icon of Austrian modernism – had a passion for metalwork. His nutcracker, created in the 1950s with two solid, sand-cast brass pieces, demonstrates his exquisite skill. Made by hand in Vienna, the Carl Auböck Nutcracker is available in three timeless finishes: Polished Brass, Nickel-Plated Brass, and Patinated Brass.
