The Danish lighting company Nuura was established in 2017 by Sofie Refer, Nadia Lassen, and Peter Østerberg. Nuura strives to create esthetic and exclusive lighting that reflects the joy and richness of Nordic scenery. Nuura means light and glory, and the lighting company is inspired by the Nordic light with the vision to bring it into the home. With the chandelier at its center, Sofie Refer has designed lighting that both enriches and complements interiors in private homes and public places.

Nuura aims to combine elegant design and innovative technology to create unique, high-quality luminaires that have a positive impact on our well-being. The Nuura lighting range includes hand-blown glass pendant lamps, voluminous chandeliers, and stylish cluster lamps to suit your taste.
