Drinks are where a holiday party actually happens, and the Nutcrackers Ice Bucket puts the collection exactly where people gather. The piece is hand sponged in rich color with robust detail on Terra Bianca, a white earthenware clay Italian workshops use because painted color stays vivid on it. Made in Italy, it is scaled to keep a bar stocked through a long evening, and it is dishwasher, microwave, oven and freezer safe, so it can be chilled ahead and cleaned without care. Fill it with ice beside the bar cart, or use it the rest of the year for chilled wine, bottles of beer, or flowers cut short for a side table.
