A traditional nutcracker soldier stands centered against a teal starlit background, rendered in folk-art style with bold geometric forms and hand-painted character. His black uniform features red and gold accents, a tall hat crowned with a golden snowflake, and an exaggerated grin that conveys festive warmth and whimsy. Printed on clear acrylic and made to order in two sizes. A serving piece for the dinner party or a pop of color as a kitchen accent, carrying an independent artist's work instead of a big-box print.
