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 Serving Set includes five pieces created for shared serving around the table: two serving spoons, one salad fork, one serving fork and one sauce ladle. The serving spoons and forks measure 24 cm, while the sauce ladle measures 20 cm. Together, the pieces extend Sanna's simple lines and stylised detailing from the individual place setting into the shared space at the centre of the table.
The serving pieces translate Sanna's calm contemporary character into larger utensils designed for sharing food. Each piece has a clearly defined function, while the restrained lines and stylised detailing keep the collection visually coherent. The result is serving cutlery that feels like a natural continuation of Sanna rather than a separate group of accessories.
Introduced in 2025, Sanna represents a new chapter in the Hardanger Bestikk family story. The collection has a clear kinship with earlier Hardanger designs, yet gives that heritage a contemporary expression through simple lines and a stylised pattern. It was conceived as a bridge between tradition and a new generation, created for new gatherings and stories around the table.
Sanna takes inspiration from the apple blossom, a familiar symbol of the Hardanger region. Its flowering represents renewal and the beginning of a new season, while its character combines delicacy with resilience. These qualities are reflected in Sanna's balance of robustness and warmth, with the stylised motif bringing a subtle reference to the Hardanger landscape into the design.
Sanna was created by Frida Leikvoll and Per Finne for Hardanger Bestikk and introduced in 2025. The collection connects the company's established design heritage with a new generation. In the Serving Set, that story extends beyond the individual place setting and into the shared ritual of presenting, passing and serving food around the table.
