Anderssen & Voll’s Ildhane candleholder has an intriguing, expressive form that resembles a bird with a handsome tail: ild is Norwegian for fire and hane stands for a rooster. Anderssen & Voll designed the interior of Nedre Foss Gård, an exquisite restaurant in Oslo, in 2015 and the cast iron candleholder was born as an extension of the project. The sculpture-like Ildhane is not only the perfect companion for candles but also an attractive detail in any décor. Anderssen & Voll has described Ildhane as a combination of Paris and Kalevala, the national epic of Finland.

Anderssen & Voll is a design studio based in Oslo, led by Torbjørn Anderssen and Espen Voll. Founded in 2009, the studio is known for its open, dialogue-driven approach to design. Anderssen & Voll’s work spans furniture and lighting as well as textiles, everyday objects and complete interior concepts, and the studio is widely regarded as one of the most internationally respected names in contemporary Norwegian design.
Anderssen & Voll has collaborated with a wide range of clients, including Muuto, &Tradition and Audo Copenhagen. The duo’s work has been recognised with numerous awards, both in Norway and internationally.
Anderssen & Voll – at the heart of Norwegian design
The design studio Anderssen & Voll was founded in 2009, when Torbjørn Anderssen (b. 1976) and Espen Voll (b. 1965), the founders of the Oslo-based design company Norway Says, decided to start a new chapter together. Established in 2000, Norway Says played a key role in bringing Norwegian design to international attention.
The duo share a similar background, having both studied at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and the Bergen Academy of Art and Design, where Anderssen now works as a professor. They are equally aligned in their ambitions: Anderssen & Voll strive to design and create products that stand the test of time, both functionally and aesthetically.
Dialogue and creative friction
At the core of Anderssen & Voll’s design philosophy lies a continuous dialogue between two strong perspectives. The designers have described their collaboration as a process of challenging one another – disagreements and friction are not obstacles, but an essential part of the creative process. This tension is also reflected in the final result: the design is thoughtful, yet never predictable.
Product design and interior architecture
Anderssen & Voll’s portfolio includes furniture, lighting, home accessories and textiles, as well as interior and exhibition projects. The studio has designed interiors for restaurants, trade fair stands and the headquarters of Norwegian brand Nedre Foss, for whom they have also created several products.
Throughout their career, Anderssen & Voll have received numerous international design awards, including the Wallpaper* Design Award, Red Dot Award and iF Design Award, and have been named Designers of the Year in Norway and Scandinavia.

My mom and I traveled to Norway and saw these candlesticks in a shop. The shop we saw them in originally unfortunately didn’t ship to our home (USA) so I was so glad to be able to find them and get them for her as a gift. They are heavy, sturdy, and a lovely shape.
