About This Design

Swedish Dala Horse Sweden Travel Postcard

Swedish Dala Horse Sweden Travel Postcard

The Dala horse (Dalahäst) is one of Sweden’s most iconic cultural symbols, originating from the province of Dalarna in central Sweden. Traditionally, these wooden horses were hand-carved by farmers during the long winter months and painted in bright colors, most commonly red with decorative patterns in white, green, yellow, and blue. The Dala horse was originally a simple toy for children, but over time it became a symbol of Swedish craftsmanship, rural tradition, and national pride. Each horse is unique, with intricate patterns known as “Kurbits”, inspired by Scandinavian folk art and floral motifs. Today, the Dala horse is both a popular souvenir and a decorative art piece, representing Sweden in homes, museums, and cultural events worldwide. The town of Mora in Dalarna is particularly famous for producing these horses, and visitors can watch artisans carve and paint them in traditional workshops. Beyond its aesthetic value, the Dala horse embodies Swedish heritage and the country’s historical connection to woodworking, folk art, and rural life. It is often displayed during festivals and holidays, serving as a cheerful emblem of Swedish identity.

I joined Postcrossing a few months ago and wanted postcards to represent my state well. I found them on Zazzle. I purchased numerous cards and was impressed with all of them. Excellent! The colors are beautiful. The cards have the exact look I wanted. I couldn't be happier.
