Splendid and rare collectible acorn-shaped nutcracker, original model "Die Supernuß" produced in West Germany in the 1970s by the famous company BMF (BMF Nagel).
This exclusive variant features a precious 24-karat gold plating, which transforms a daily-use object into a refined Mid-Century design piece for the table. [1, 2]
Mechanism: Inside the heavy shell-shaped housing lies the sturdy and ingenious pressure mechanism, very easy to use and highly effective.
Conditions: Excellent vintage condition (assess carefully from the attached photos), it preserves an impeccable gold luster. The mechanism is smooth and perfectly functioning.
Indicative dimensions: about 13 x 8 x 10 cm.
Use: Perfect as a decorative tabletop sculpture, vintage bar accessory, or a gift for collectors of German mid-century modern design.
"Complete with the original era BMF 'Die Supernuß' box in good condition, a very rare detail that certifies its authenticity and the original 24-karat gold finish (24 Karat vergoldet)."
