Scoiattolo Nut Cracker

Designed by Andrea Branzi for Alessi, the Scoiattolo is a whimsical nut cracker that is beautiful enough to display when not in use. The stainless steel squirrel – scoiattolo in Italian – is ready to easily crack open any hard shell nut. This piece, produced in Italy's Strona Valley, is part of Alessi's Values Collection of all time favourites and celebrates 100 years of Alessi's Dream Factory.
