How Dala horses are made
A Dala horse is carved from a single piece of wood, that comes from Swedish forests.
The horse statue is plunged into paint several times, which is its base color. The Dala artist paints the detailed ornaments by hand, and with great care!
The last step is covering the Dala horse statue with a final coat of lacquer and that is it! The Dala horse is ready to travel the world!
