The box was damaged (plastic front is missing), the beard was made of "hair" and it was detached, I had to glue it on. The beard on website is made of felt. Also, the item is had a light film of dirt that I wiped off with a damp cloth.

My son-in-law does all the cooking in his family; this is perfect and such a cute slogan on the apron.

Hung on Candy themed Christmas tree. Detailed and great colors.

Purchased this for an up-and-coming chef. She collects nutcrackers. This one is her favorite.

What a great addition to my Christmas nutcracker collection. It decorates my kitchen during the holidays, and it is end of February and I may keep it up all year because it is so cute. Exactly as pictured.
