Creation of a Dala Horse

Long before the Dala Horse was a signature art form in Lindsborg, the handcrafted toy was carved by woodsmen in Sweden for their children to enjoy. Now Dala Horse decorations are found in almost every corner of the world and many of those handcrafted treasures were made at the Hemslöjd in Lindsborg. Watch the video to meet some of the people who are carrying on the Swedish tradition of Dalahäst craftsmanship.
