Dala Horse Ornament
Buy $12.00
Hundreds of years ago in the Dalarna province of Sweden, in the small log cabins deep in the heart of the forests during the long winter nights the first Dala Horse was born. Using simple tools - generally only a knife - woodcarvers made toys for their children from the leftover scraps of wood used in the furniture and clock-making workshops that were found in the Dalarna region. Originally the horses were left unpainted, but over the years it became popular to paint them bright red with colorful details.
A beloved symbol of the country of Sweden, our Dala Horse Ornament is hand-carved and left unpainted - just like the originals!
