From Sketch to Table
Sanna begins with a light botanical trace. The pattern is drawn from apple blossom — simplified into a calm line for the table.

A stylised blossom rests in the surface. The detail is quiet, giving the handle a soft graphic presence.

The Sanna Cake Set is created for serving cake around the table and brings together dedicated cake forks with a matching cake server. The pieces extend Sanna's simple lines and stylised detailing into one of the table's more celebratory moments, allowing the same contemporary design language to continue naturally from the main place setting into dessert and shared serving.
The Cake Set translates Sanna's calm contemporary expression into pieces designed specifically for serving and enjoying cake. The smaller forks give the collection a more delicate scale, while the cake server provides a natural focal point when food is shared at the centre of the table. Together, they combine practical function with the same restrained detailing that defines the wider Sanna collection.
Introduced in 2025, Sanna represents a new chapter in the Hardanger Bestikk family story. The collection looks back to the character of earlier Hardanger designs while giving that heritage a contemporary expression through simple lines and a stylised pattern. It was created as a design rooted in tradition, yet intended for new generations and new stories around the table.
Sanna takes inspiration from the apple blossom, a familiar symbol of the Hardanger region and a sign of renewal and the beginning of a new season. Its combination of delicacy and resilience is reflected in a design that feels robust and enduring, yet soft and warm in expression. The stylised motif brings this reference to the Hardanger landscape quietly into the collection.
Sanna was created by Frida Leikvoll Meland and Per Finne for Hardanger Bestikk and introduced in 2025. The collection was conceived as a bridge between the company's design heritage and a new generation. In the Cake Set, that story continues into the shared ritual of cutting, serving and enjoying cake around the table.
