Nutcracker at the Ballet - Fun Size
by Andy C. Ellis
Puzzle Size: 8.2 × 3.4 in
NUTCRACKER AT THE BALLET is the iconic nutcracker prince from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Ballet. The regal prince does battle with the mouse king while the story of Clara’s enchanted Christmas Eve — with the sugarplum fairy — plays out below. This puzzle has an irregular edge and is cut in the shape of a nutcracker.
ANDY C. ELLIS loves cartoons and cinema. As a result, his art often contains a humorous or hidden story. His use of color is inspired by his Texas upbringing—warm, open spaces where the sharp landscape meets the soft blue sky.
- All about Fun—We designed every aspect of Boardwalk Wooden Puzzles to be about fun—from the art, Playful Pieces, and unusual locking nubs, down to the story each puzzle tells. That’s why it might be the only puzzle you like putting together as much the second time.
- Exclusive Art—Each title is painted in our art studio or exclusively licensed from renowned artists. You won’t find Boardwalk art in other puzzles. We focus on lively, colorful shaped images that add to the experience.
- Playful Pieces—We pack each puzzle with recognizable shapes themed to each puzzle image. You’ll discover animals, flowers, iconic buildings, characters, trees and many other fun pieces. Depending on the image, you might find pieces shaped like a pirate galleon, the leaning tower of Pisa, a surfer, a shark, a nutcracker, a ballerina, a reindeer, or a mini snow globe with a snowman inside.
- Handcrafted—Boardwalk wooden puzzles are crafted from extra thick, premium-grade wood. Each piece is sanded and hand polished with citrus oil wax to feel silky smooth in your hand.
- Luxury Packaging—Fun size puzzles come in a cube box with a full-color insert and outer sleeve to keep everything neatly tucked inside.
