____________________
Krogenæs Møbler was founded by Ragnvald Krogenæs in the mountain village of Skåbu in Norway on July 3, 1964.
Ragnvald Krogenæs dream was to make traditional Norwegian pine furniture for modern homes, based on old Norwegian agricultural tradition.
In 1964, he was presented on Norwegian Television in a series about some of the Norwegian business worlds Askeladder (Askeladd = fictional figure in Norwegian folk tales, the hero of the stories, the youngest boy from whom no one expects anything but who nonetheless wins in the end).
The furniture sold so well that for a time they were also able to manufacture in the village of Vinstra.
His big dream was a reality, and he only experienced boom times until his death in 1969.
During the company's heyday, the factory employed around 85 people, but in the early 1970s the company had capacity problems and had difficulty delivering products on time. In the late 1980s, the company experienced decline both in Norway and abroad.
Krogenæs Møbler went bankrupt in 1992 and several times after that. In 2014, 50 years after Ragnvald Krogenæs founded the company, the saga definitely ended.

- Krogenæs, Pair of Three Legged Stool, "Fjøskrakk" Mod. 522, Pine, Norway, 1960sLocated in Hønefoss, 30Introducing a beautifully pair of crafted three-legged pine stool, model no. 522 by Krogenæs Møbler. This stunning piece of furniture was designed in Norway in 1964 by none other than the factory owner himself, Rangvald Krogenæs. The stool, known as "Fjøskrakk," or "Milking Stool," draws inspiration from the functional milking stools of the past. Provenance: This particular pair was originally owned by a worker at the Krogenæs factory and originally painted by him. In times gone by, milking cows was a physically demanding task that required long hours of labor in the fields.
