Swedish Wooden Dala Horse - Pink - 5"

This product is an authentic Swedish Dala Horse (dalahäst) handcrafted by artisans at Lelles Dalahastar in Mora, Sweden. A cultural symbol of strength and good luck, its vibrant pink color offers a modern interpretation of this traditional folk art piece.

With a history dating back to the 1700s, the hand-carved, brightly painted horse has become a cherished national symbol of Sweden.

Authenticity and Craftsmanship

This Dala Horse is a genuine Lelles Dalahastar original from one of the few workshops preserving this traditional craft. Each horse is handcrafted, making it a unique piece.

• Carving: Carved by hand from a single piece of solid pine wood, selected for its density and smooth grain.
• Painting: This 5-inch model is hand-painted with a pink base and the traditional multi-color "kurbits" pattern. Since the pattern is applied freehand, no two horses are exactly alike.
• Verification: Includes a mark of origin from the Mora workshop, confirming its authenticity.
