Nutcrackers, standing guard since forever

There’s something about a nutcracker — part toy soldier, part Christmas tradition — and with around 20 to choose from there’s a posting here for every spot from shelf duty to front-door guard. Sizes run from 13cm window-boxed minis right up to Jacob and Dieter, our 124cm and 151cm standing soldiers, with 30–40cm shelf sizes in between.

Pick your post

The little ones — 13cm window-boxed minis in assorted designs and the 30–40cm shelf pieces — are made for mantels, bookcases and kids’ rooms. Step up to the 4ft Gingerbread Soldier (122cm) and the big named soldiers like Jacob (124cm) and Dieter (151cm) and you’ve got a piece that holds a hallway on its own, or flanks the Christmas tree. A matched pair either side of the front door is the classic move.

Candy, gingerbread and classic soldiers

The traditional lacquer-finish soldiers and standing figurines are here, but so are the fun ones — candy nutcrackers in 31cm and 40cm, a peppermint candy cane nutcracker and that gingerbread fellow. There’s a hanging resin general for the tree, and windup music boxes — including a soldier music box — for the nostalgics.

Getting one home in one piece

Pieces start from around $19.95 and run close to $1,000 at the top of the range, with Afterpay and Zip at the checkout for the big fellows. Everything ships to most of Australia (except WA & NT) packed with proper care, and Brisbane locals can size them up in person at the Archerfield showroom — free click and collect if you’d rather not trust the courier with a soldier.

Nutcracker FAQs

What sizes do your nutcrackers come in?

From 13cm window-boxed minis through 30–40cm shelf sizes up to the big standing soldiers — the Gingerbread Soldier at 122cm, Jacob at 124cm and Dieter at 151cm.

Do any of them play music?

Yes — there's a windup nutcracker music box and a soldier music box in the range, alongside the classic standing figures.

Will a big nutcracker survive shipping?

We pack everything with proper care and ship to most of Australia (except WA & NT). Brisbane locals can collect free from the Archerfield showroom — the tall fellows ride happily in a back seat.

Can I pay a big one off?

Afterpay and Zip are both at the checkout, which takes the sting out of the larger guards.
