Chance to grab some Christmas crackers of a different kind
A Shropshire antiques centre is offering customers some unusual Christmas crackers this year – but these are of the vintage wooden variety.
Old Mill Antiques Centre in Bridgnorth is selling a collection of Victorian nutcrackers and owner John Ridgway says they are the most unusual ones he has ever seen.
He said: “We have six late 19th century carved wooden nutcrackers on sale, all in great condition and made in the Black Forest area of Germany.
“The designs are really unusual, ranging from a bear, a dog and a squirrel to monks, all beautifully made. They would make lovely Christmas presents and of course have a very practical use during the festive season."
The nutcrackers range in price from £100 to £325 and Old Mill Antiques Centre is open seven days a week, from 10am until 5pm.
