IKEA DRAGON cutlery set

The IKEA DRAGON cutlery series is a classic, durable stainless steel flatware set designed by Carl-Gustaf Jahnsson. Since its introduction, it has become one of IKEA's most recognizable and long-standing utility products, praised for its simple, ergonomic design that suits various dining occasions.

While the brand is synonymous with Swedish design and heritage, the actual manufacturing of the DRAGON series occurs across a global network of suppliers. Common production locations for these stainless steel items include China, Vietnam, and Poland. IKEA utilizes a decentralized supply chain where products are manufactured by over 1,200 suppliers worldwide to maintain low costs and accessibility.

Historically founded in Sweden by Ingvar Kamprad in 1943, the brand's ownership structure has evolved significantly. Today, the IKEA brand is owned and managed by Inter IKEA Systems B.V., which is headquartered in the Netherlands. This structure allows the company to oversee global design and franchising while maintaining its iconic Swedish identity.
