All the dala horses are unique and true handicrafts. Available in four different colours: classic red, white, black or blue.
The name Dala Horse comes from the horse's home province, Dalarna, in central Sweden. It gained international popularity when it was chosen by the National Crafts Union for part of the Swedish display at the Paris Exposition in the mid-19th century. Skills for creating the Dala Horse have been passed from generation to generation, and today it is one of the few living folk traditions of Sweden.
