Cultural Note

The Dala Horse (Dalahäst) originated in the Swedish province of Dalarna as a winter pastime for woodcutters in log cabins. By the 1939 New York World's Fair, it became a global symbol of Sweden. The "Kurbits" painting technique seen on the harness is an ancient Swedish folk art style depicting stylized, fantastical floral patterns rooted in traditional murals and furniture dating back to the 1700s.

Product FAQ's

Are the kurbits colors the same as the picture, and are they identical to others?
No, and that is the true beauty of an authentic piece. Every single Dala horse is completely hand-painted by an artisan in Nusnäs, Sweden. The kurbits floral patterns naturally vary in shade, line detail, and color balance. The photos represent the overall series style, but your specific horse will be a completely unique, one-of-a-kind original.
