This 11 1/8-inch Seiffener Volkskunst Robber nutcracker was missing its eyes and large areas of paint.

I don't know why the details of this figure make it a robber, but more often than not, that's what folks are calling it. This design is not currently being produced by the company.

The artificial fleece material on this example, represents the time when Seiffener Volkskunst and some other workshops, were substituting it for the usual rabbit fur. I don't know the time period for this substitution or have an explanation for it.
