Hand painted in Bellagio, the Nutcrackers Ornament carries a story that gets retold every December. Maestro artisans paint each piece individually, which is why no two are quite identical and why a handmade Italian Christmas ornament is worth keeping rather than replacing. It is the smallest entry into VIETRI's Nutcrackers collection, light enough to hang on an outer branch where the detail actually shows, and detailed enough to reward a close look once it is there. The design belongs to the same pattern that dresses the holiday table, so tree and table read as one. It arrives gift boxed, ready to hand over, and it earns its place season after season as the kind of collectible a family starts a tradition around.
