From Sketch to Table
A line can carry a landscape. In Fjord, the form is calm and exact — shaped by clean surfaces, quiet weight and Scandinavian restraint.

Clean lines meet small shifts in light. The polished surface gives the table a precise, composed rhythm.
Odd Leikvoll is the founder of Hardanger Bestikk.
Across several decades, Leikvoll developed some of Hardanger Bestikk’s most recognisable collections, moving between ornament, Scandinavian minimalism and new approaches to surface and construction. His designs were created to function naturally in the hand, while remaining distinctive enough to become part of everyday life around the table.

The Fjord 48-piece set creates a complete table setting for twelve people. It includes twelve dinner knives, twelve dinner forks, twelve dinner spoons and twelve teaspoons. Together, the four essential pieces allow Fjord's long handles, polished surfaces and softly balanced proportions to repeat with a calm and consistent rhythm around the table.
Designed by Norwegian designer Odd Leikvoll in 2000, Fjord is an expression of Scandinavian minimalism shaped through soft, precise lines. Its elongated handles and gently rounded contours create an understated silhouette in which proportion and balance become the defining details. The result is a design that feels quiet and refined without losing its distinctive character.
Fjord is characterised by long handles, soft transitions and a clean polished surface. Rather than relying on ornament, the design finds its identity in carefully controlled proportions and subtle detailing. Light travels clearly across the stainless steel, emphasising the elongated form and giving each piece an elegant, composed presence around the table.
Fjord is made from 18/10 stainless steel with a polished finish and is dishwasher-safe. The dinner knife measures 23 cm, the dinner fork 19.9 cm, the dinner spoon 20.5 cm and the teaspoon 14 cm. These elongated proportions are central to Fjord's visual identity and contribute to its balanced feeling in the hand.
Fjord was designed by Norwegian designer Odd Leikvoll for Hardanger Bestikk and introduced in 2000. The collection reflects a Scandinavian approach in which function, proportion and restraint define the character of an object. Its soft lines and precise details allow Fjord to contribute quietly to both the visual atmosphere and the guest experience around the table.
