Larssons Tra
Hedvig Easter Witch - Wooden - 7.5" - Boxed
The Hedvig Easter Witch is a traditional Scandinavian Easter decoration handcrafted in Sweden by heritage brand Larssons Trä. This 7.5-inch wooden figure represents the classic Påskkärring (Easter Witch) character, serving as a connection to generations of Swedish holiday customs.
In Swedish folklore, children celebrate by dressing as Easter witches, carrying copper kettles door-to-door for sweets. This custom stems from the belief that witches flew to a German mountain before Easter, prompting villagers to light bonfires. Today, this rich storytelling tradition is preserved in Hedvig's hand-finished details.
