For more than 85 years, Fjords has been inspired by the dramatic landscapes, natural beauty, and enduring craftsmanship of Norway. Founded in 1941 by brothers Otto and Mindor Hjellegjerde in the fjordside districts of Norway, our story began with a simple vision: to create furniture that combines exceptional comfort, thoughtful function, and timeless Scandinavian design.
When their brother Ingvald joined the company in 1946, that vision continued to grow. What started in modest cellar workshops evolved into one of Norway’s most recognized furniture manufacturers, bringing authentic Norwegian comfort and design to homes across five continents. Today, Fjords remains rooted in the same values that shaped us from the very beginning — quality craftsmanship, honest materials, and a deep respect for the way people live and relax.
The Norwegian landscape continues to influence every Fjords design. The calm of the fjords, the strength of the mountains, and the simplicity of Scandinavian living inspire furniture that feels refined, welcoming, and timeless.
Clean lines, balanced proportions, and carefully selected materials allow each piece to complement modern living spaces while delivering lasting comfort and style.
At Fjords, relaxation is essential to everyday well-being. Every recliner, sofa, and seating system is thoughtfully designed to support the body while delivering exceptional comfort and functionality.
Decades of ergonomic innovation are built into every Fjords product. From supportive seating to smooth reclining motion, our furniture is crafted to help you relax naturally without compromising beautiful Scandinavian design.
Always look for the official Fjords logo to ensure you are experiencing authentic Fjords comfort and craftsmanship.
It’s important for your body to be truly comfortable; this means that the chair you choose needs to be more than just a soft place to sit. An ergonomically correct chair will provide continuous support and comfort which will prevent your legs and back from becoming tired.
Such a chair will relax your body, enabling your blood to circulate more freely. As your back relaxes, your spine is gently supported in the right places and at the correct angle.
It makes us unique.
It makes us Fjords.
The main key to our philosophy, is to find the combination between tradition and innovation, the point where yesterday’s knowledge meets modern technology. This makes us reliable and trustworthy, from product quality to delivery. Just like the ocean, we move constatly towards the goal, and like the mountains we will always have our roots in the past.
