This handmade Norwegian mangle board from the 1980s reflects a long standing Nordic folk tradition. Hand carved in wood and finished with a distinctive horse shaped handle, it carries the character of rural Scandinavian craftsmanship.
Traditionally used to smooth linen and garments, mangle boards also held symbolic meaning. In Norway, they were often carved by a suitor and presented as a sign of commitment, making them historic engagement or wedding gifts.
