Arne Norell “Pilot” leather armchair
Swedish furniture designer and producer Arne Norell
The history begins with the Swedish designer Arne Norell, who founded the company in 1954. Since then, Norells has been a family business with the ambition to carry on Arne’s legacy.
All furniture is made by hand at Norell’s factory in Småland. A lot of care goes into every piece of furniture that is created. Many of Arne Norell’s models are still manufactured. They are characterized by his unique design language. After Arne’s death, new models were developed, often based on drawings that Arne left behind. Arne’s daughter Marie Norell-Möller designed her own furniture, many of them very successful.
At the beginning of the new century, new shapes took their place in the collection, Marie and her husband Thomas were a strong driving force in the rapidly growing Swedish trend with Howard furniture; sofas and armchairs. In recent years, Arne Norell’s “Mid Century Furniture” has had a renaissance and grown strong internationally. Today, for example, the armchairs “Sirocco” and “Ari” are significant export goods to both private customers and hotels.
Norells values function, comfort, durability and timeless design. We mostly work with Swedish materials of the highest quality. Our customers have a wide choice between fabrics and leather from the best suppliers on the market, both Swedish and foreign. In addition, there is the possibility of changing clothes, which our skilled craftsmen carry out. We aim for our furniture to last a long time and give pleasure to everyone who sits in it…
