ARI
Design: Arne Norell
Perhaps Arne Norell's most beautiful and luxurious design. Exclusive Scandinavian leather, combined with an elegant chrome plated frame makes it more than appealing to the eye. The straps are yet another detail that calls for attention. Ari was awarded "Showpiece of the year" in 1973 by the British Furniture Manufacturers in London. Each chair is handmade at our factory in Sweden with great care, all according to Arne Norell's original drawings. The premium leather is from Tärnsjö Garveri, Sørensen, Elmo, and Ca-mo. Ari comes in a variety of colors and we also take special requests. The frame comes in satin or gloss finish.

We make unique Scandinavian designs that last.

Arne Norell
1917-1971, Swedish furniture designer and entrepreneur.
Arne Norell started his own workshop in 1954 in the town of Solna, Sweden. Thereafter he moved to Småland and established his company Möbel AB Arne Norell, today known as Norell Möbel AB (Norell Furniture). He was known for his versatile use of wood, leather, fabric, and metal in furniture characterized by comfort and ease. Norell’s success made him a household name within the interior design-world of Europe. Several models were also produced in other parts of the world under a license.
He was to a great extent inspired by Danish design. Two examples of this influence are the lounge chair Ari and the safari chair Sirocco. Ari was awarded the British Furniture Manufacturer’s greatest award “showpiece of the year” in 1973. Many of the models he designed came into production after his death in 1971. His designs are still handcrafted by the same company today, Norell Möbel AB.
