01 THE STORY
From Sketch to Table
A pattern begins before the steel is shaped. In Nina, the line moves softly — drawn from Norwegian nature, ornament and the rhythm of the set table.
02 THE DETAILS
The Details
S- and C-shaped curves move through the handle like small traces of rosemaling. Ornament becomes part of the balance.
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.
