Rutebo Leksand — handgjord svensk keramik full av karaktär

Rutebo Leksand — handcrafted Swedish ceramics full of character

In Leksand, a small village in Dalarna in central Sweden, lies Rutebo's studio — the creations of ceramist Rut Clara Landström. Her charming animal and folklore figurines have become beloved collector's items for fans of Scandinavian craftsmanship.

What makes Rutebo special?

Foxes, bears, cats, roosters, foals, kangaroos — Rutebo's figures are as playful as they are delightful. Each item is hand-finished with earthy glaze colors that give them a warmth and individuality not found in mass-produced ceramics. Some figures even wear traditional Northern Swedish folk costumes.

As decoration

  • Arrange them on a shelf or mantelpiece as a curated collection
  • Place them on a windowsill where the light catches the glaze colors
  • Mix with plants and other Nordic items for natural shelf styling
  • Use as a desk or bedside accent

As a vase

Rooster and animal-shaped flower vases are perfect for a single flower or wildflower arrangement. Simple, beautiful, and full of personality.

As a gift

A wonderful gift for lovers of Scandinavian folk art, animal figurines, or handmade ceramics. Each item is unique — a truly personal gift.

Find your favorite Rutebo figure and bring a little Dalarna charm into your home.
