kurbits are traditional Swedish decorative motifs that often feature stylized floral and plant designs. They are commonly found in folk art, particularly in painted furniture, textiles, and ceramics. The designs typically include vibrant colors and intricate patterns, reflecting the beauty of nature. Originating in the 18th century, kurbits art is closely associated with the Dalarna region of Sweden. The term "kurbits" itself is derived from the word for "gourd" in German, symbolizing abundance and fertility. Today, these motifs continue to be celebrated in Swedish culture and are popular in various crafts and home decor.
