NIKARI
The Finest Nordic Craftmanship.
Expertise in solid wood. We create beautiful, long-lasting wooden furniture according to our over 50-year old original idea of combining modern design with the Finnish craftsmanship tradition. Today it is more important than ever to take into account all the different qualities of a proper product from high-quality design and functionality to sustainable production.
Characterized by an ambitious and contemporary approach, the design of Nikari furniture is deeply rooted in the traditional Nordic craftsmanship philosophy. Restrained and serene, the design respects the essence of wood. Nikari furniture fits naturally into interiors from various periods.
Nikari was founded in 1967 in Seinäjoki, next to Nikkarinkoski river. The company name is a play with the Finnish word “nikkari”, meaning a cabinet maker, the name of the area Nikkarinkoski (meaning “the river stream of the cabinet maker”) and the founder’s own name, Kari Virtanen
