Vintage crude metal sculpture Paddle wheeler / steamer / wheel boat Swedish? Scandinavian? top Expressive iron art statue Ship / Steamboat gift

A very special little sculpture.
The greatest thing about it is that it is so natural, so flowing, like it's living a life of its own.
A brave little boat fighting the waves, puffing out some smoke as she goes.
The figure is unmarked so I am not sure if the artist is Swedish but they might as well be.
19 cm long, 11 top cm tall.
Nice vintage condition.
