Fredrik A. Kayser: Norwegian industrial designer, Fredrik A. Kayser (1924-1968) was born in Bergen, and was introduced to the world of design at a young age through his family’s furniture business. Apprenticed as a carpenter, Kayser’s first chair design was put into production by Viken Møbelfabrikk when he was just fifteen years old, foreshadowing a bright future in design.
Kayser attended the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry—now known as the Oslo National Academy of the Arts—graduating in 1945. From 1945 to 1946, he worked for design firm Rastad & Relling in Oslo before opening his own factory in Bergen. Unfortunately his business was unsuccessful, and he returned to his previous employer in capital, where he stayed from 1952 to 1956, he worked.
In 1956, Kayser founded his own design studio, and worked as a freelancer for various chair and furniture manufacturers, such as Viken Mobelfabrikk, where he designed the teak and rosewood Hertug sideboard. Kayser collaborated with Knut Sæter of Vatne Lenestolfabrikk (armchair factory) in 1958, creating furniture that could be easily shipped and assembled.
Kayser was heavily influenced by Danish design—popular all over the world in the mid-century period. Kayser was also well-known for his lamination technique, Kayser passed away at the premature age of forty-four. Although his life was short, his accomplishments and designs have earned him a place among Norway’s most important mid-century designers

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
