Questions about Hardanger Lykke Cutlery Set 24 Pieces

What is included in the Hardanger Bestikk Lykke 24-piece cutlery set?

The Lykke 24-piece set creates a complete table setting for six people. It includes six dinner knives, six dinner forks, six dinner spoons and six teaspoons. Together, the four essential pieces allow Lykke's flowing lines, polished surfaces and distinctive sense of balance to create a lively yet harmonious rhythm around the table.

What is the design story behind Hardanger Bestikk Lykke?

Designed by Norwegian designer Odd Leikvoll in 2013, Lykke explores movement and balance through flowing, gently undulating forms. The collection combines clear lines with a silhouette that feels almost alive in the hand, giving the pieces a dynamic character while preserving the restraint associated with Scandinavian design.

What makes the Lykke design distinctive?

Lykke is characterised by its flowing contours, clean lines and carefully considered point of balance. The shapes subtly change direction through the handle, creating a sense of movement while remaining comfortable to hold. Its polished surface catches the light across these curves, giving the collection a distinctive but understated presence around the table.

What are the dimensions and material of the Lykke 24-piece set?

Lykke is made from 18/10 stainless steel with a polished finish and is dishwasher-safe. The dinner knife measures 24 cm, the dinner fork 21 cm, the dinner spoon 21.3 cm and the teaspoon 14 cm. The proportions and carefully considered balance point are central to the collection's tactile character and the way each piece rests naturally in the hand.

Who designed Hardanger Bestikk Lykke?

Lykke was designed by Norwegian designer Odd Leikvoll for Hardanger Bestikk and introduced in 2013. In the collection, Leikvoll combines Scandinavian restraint with a more dynamic approach to form, using movement, proportion and balance to give the cutlery its identity. Lykke shows how a simple table object can become expressive through the way its lines move both in the hand and around the table.
