Every element serves a purpose, ensuring our furniture is comfortable, easy to care for, and perfectly suited for your needs. As a family-owned and operated brand, we uphold our founding values. Each new furniture design adheres to the Bauhaus principles of design, quality, and affordability, ensuring the legacy of Marcel Olsen continues. We believe in good design, which is why we embrace modern materials and production methods, making Bauhaus-inspired furniture accessible to a wider audience. Founded in 1975, we've continued this mission for nearly five decades, ensuring thoughtfully designed furniture finds a place in every home.

Excellent service

Despite the delay and minor scratch to the article the service was impeccable. These things can happen.
The scratch was insignificant enough that it didn't warrant an exchange and the small delay was immediately reported to me with an apology.
Retro Europe is very easy to contact via e-mail or phone. I would recommend it because of its superior customer service and interesting articles.

Fantastic Fast and Fabulous

I couldn't rate the company higher.

We needed a special order of Scandanavian style furniture for our business, and they really came through. We were able to get each item as specified delivered to our premises on schdaul.

Thumbs up from The Dings Fun House & Emporium!

Excellent product and a Excellent service

Found them on the internet and placed one order, all fine and really liked the furniture I purchased so I bought some other items. When I found the price had gone up I let them know and they matched it which definitely secured my business.

They had to dispatch my last order fast to arrive in my apartment before I left the country and I am happy to say the furniture arrived in time.

From ordering, right through to delivery, the service has been spot on! I ordered two chairs from Retro Europe, communication was excellent right from the start and chairs were delivered at advised time. Orders were extremely well packaged and chairs have now been set up and look fantastic. My parents are now going to order a chair for themselves. Many thanks!
