A pack of 8 different Swedish Dala animal cards
Originating in the province of Dalarna, Sweden, the Dala Horse (Swedish Dalahäst) is a brightly painted wooden horse that has come to symbolize Sweden as a whole. Originally they were unpainted, but the Falun copper mine produced red pigment that proved popular for the horses. Later the fanciful saddle and designs were added in the popular Scandinavian style of the 1800’s.
Each card measures 4.25 X 5.5 inches and is blank on the inside. Envelopes are included.
