Description
A striking antique Swedish Dala horse, hand-painted in a deep blue ground with vibrant traditional detailing.
Carved from wood and painted by hand, this Dala horse is a fine example of Swedish folk art, distinguished by its rich blue surface, a less common and highly appealing variation on the traditional form. Flowing hand-painted motifs in white, green, yellow, and red animate the body, each brushstroke applied freely and with confidence.
The surface shows authentic wear and patina consistent with age, adding depth and warmth rather than detracting from its presence. Its generous scale gives it strong sculptural impact, making it an ideal statement piece on a shelf, sideboard, or table, either alone or as part of a collected arrangement of folk objects.
Sold as is.
