At the gold and silverware factory Arven, you can purchase the best of Norwegian design. Our jewelry, interior items, and silver cutlery are handmade and produced on-site, using 100% recycled gold and silver!

Through a 40-meter-long glass wall in the store, you can observe how the gold and silversmiths work. From Monday to Saturday, you can join a guided tour at Arven. Read more and book "Made In Bergen - a guided tour of Arven, design and craftmanship in action" here. (Must be booked in advance)

For 156 years, Arven has had its production in the center of Bergen and is now located in historical surroundings, behind Bryggen between Mariakirken and Bergenhus Fortress.

Here, large, powerful machines stop out new treasures every day. The whole store vibrates and rumbles when the machines are in operation. Flames rise high when beautiful gold jewelry or exquisite candlesticks in real silver are soldered. You get up close to the production and see how the silver and goldsmiths work on jewelry, interior items, and silver cutlery. Today, Arven is a modern and innovative factory. In addition to our classics, we constantly develop exciting products through new design collaborations. Come in and see the magnificent examples of what can be achieved when combining modern design and traditional craftsmanship performed by skilled professionals. There's a lot to feast your eyes on!

If you are interested in recycling, you can enjoy a wide selection of gold jewelry and silverware in our Arven Vintage range. These are products that have been carefully quality-checked, cleaned, and polished by our skilled professionals. Here, you can find many unique treasures.
