Högardh & Son Painting Company has been a leading name in painting and art in Sweden since 1898 and is today one of the country’s oldest painting firms.
With a proud tradition of craftsmanship, we specialize in techniques such as marbling, graining, and gilding, and create artworks that include paintings, furniture, and large-scale projects in churches, manors, and castles. Our company is built on a foundation of expertise and deep respect for traditional methods, which have been passed down through generations, allowing us to maintain our leading position in the field.
Johanna represents the fifth generation of our family and is preparing to take over the business. As the first woman in our lineage, she looks forward to continuing our legacy and preserving these timeless methods while infusing new energy into the 21st century.
