Coming from a Hungarian background, with a language root only having similarities with Finnish, it was not a complete surprise to find that Slajf had read in his youth about the Finnish legend of ‘Kavala’. The heroine of the legend was the Princess, who was still single but sought a husband. The Queen wanted a Prince for her daughter, but no suitors came forth. One day a humble blacksmith asked to speak with the Queen. He was granted an audience, but when the Queen heard that the blacksmith wanted to marry the princess, rather than simply turn him down, she thought she would set him an impossible task. If he succeeded, he could have the princess's hand in marriage.

The task was to create a fantasy that would make the Queen smile and bring good luck to her subjects. The blacksmith set eagerly about the task and created a moving composition turning wheels and rods. He asked the Queen to turn the handles on the mobile and as she did so all her subjects saw the splendour of the piece. The Queen smiled, the blacksmith married the Princess, and the legend of Kavala was created. The fantasy mobile was called ‘Sampo’, finished in black paint peppered with sand. Slajf felt that the luck that the mobile construction brought the blacksmith would also turn the tide of luck for Serbia after a decade of turmoil.
