This beautiful set of plates themed to the classic nutcracker story will make the loveliest of gifts for someone really special. Each character has been perfectly reimagined for Wedgwood and replicated on fine bone china . Firstly, the Mouse King , the quintessential baddie who is thankfully defeated by the actions of Clara and her team. The Mouse King is wonderfully drawn and stands proud on this plate. The toy soldiers come to life on Christmas Eve and as they are loyal to Clara and the Nutcracker, they fight on bravely. Clara gets the surprise of her life on Christmas Eve when all the toys awaken and she too is called upon to join in the fray . On our plate she is shown holding the Nutcracker as a toy. Fritz is Clara’s younger brother and like Clara he is in his night clothes for the story. Little did he realise what Christmas Eve would hold ….. Dimensions: 8.2 x 8.2 x 0.7"
