Rutebo Leksand / Turgumma / Girl Who Brings Happiness

Introducing a charming boy figurine in traditional Northern Swedish folk costume, made of ceramic by Rutebo Leksand.
Rutebo is a ceramic studio established in 1956 by Rut Carla Landsröm Rutebo and her husband.
They produce many small animal and children figurines, which are popular with collectors in Sweden.
This particular figurine is called Turgumma, which means "girl who brings happiness," and it's a lovely object. Its name is engraved on its back. The Rutebo signature is also engraved at its feet. In northern Sweden, there is a ritual at the finish line of the Wasa Lopp, a 90-kilometer ski race to Mora held in March, where the Turgumma, or "girl who brings happiness," presents a wreath to the winner.
This time, we've welcomed both a boy and a girl figurine.
