01 THE STORY
From Sketch to Table
Kristin begins in craft tradition. Ornament, heritage and steel meet in a pattern with a rich, carved character.
02 THE DETAILS
The Details
The surface holds a layered ornamental expression. Each curve gives the handle depth, shadow and a sense of crafted detail.
A note from Odd Leikvoll
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.
