A home need not be finished all at once: Rita Konig brings design to everyday glasses and bowls
Her Household Goods range combines pieces she selects, designs and commissions. The official Martini Glass is £145, handblown in Venice, 12cm tall and suitable for a low-temperature dishwasher. Small useful objects can change a room gradually.
Changing a home need not start with a new sofa or wallpaper. Interior designer Rita Konig is focusing on objects we see, lift and use daily through her Household Goods line of selected, designed and commissioned pieces. Reporting published October 29 starts with a glass and extends to vases, baskets, ceramics and furniture.
Beyond earlier brand collaborations, this is a product direction entirely led by her. She worked in her mother, designer Nina Campbell’s London shop and ran it in her twenties. Packing, handing over a parcel and seeing objects enter a home form part of the background. These details come from a published interview, not this publication’s own video call with her.
A small stemmed glass, with concrete specifications
The Martini Glass has a small stem and restrained outline. The official page lists £145 including taxes, with shipping calculated at checkout. Handblown in Venice from borosilicate glass, it measures 12cm high and 6.5cm in diameter. These are the listed product details; no unverified multi-glass set has been added to that price.
Care instructions allow a low-temperature dishwasher, while noting minor colour and size variations in handmade products. Dishwasher suitability is not a guarantee against any heat or impact. Despite its name, the site also suggests tonic and lime, so the choice can concern handling, storage and existing tableware rather than a particular alcoholic drink.

Bowls, vases and baskets give small needs a considered form
Household Goods is not confined to purely decorative objects. The reporting shows nesting ceramics, vases, garden baskets and other household pieces. A glass addresses proportions in the hand; a basket answers storage or gathering needs. A bag-shaped vase and graduated dishes give ordinary functions a visible shape.

Konig uses some ceramic bowls for her dog’s food and water because such things remain constantly in view. That is her use, not confirmation that every item is suitable for pets, microwaves or dishwashers. The glass’s care instructions cannot automatically be transferred to ceramics, wicker or antique silver.
Choose something useful without fixing a room’s future forever
At the line’s introduction, goods are sold through her Household Goods website. Design, sourcing and craft do not mean she personally manufactures every object. Materials have separate origins, prices and delivery arrangements; this article lists the verified glass specifications without assigning its price to the whole range.
Her approach also allows a room’s use to change across life stages, with objects regrouped by its occupants. Start by asking whether you will use something and enjoy seeing it daily. £145 is neither inexpensive nor essential, and handmade production does not guarantee resale appreciation. Taiwan shipping, international charges and returns need checking at the official site.
Questions and answers
What is the glass’s price and size?
The official Martini Glass page lists £145 including taxes, shipping at checkout, 12cm height and 6.5cm diameter. No unverified set quantity is assumed.
Can it go in a dishwasher?
The glass’s official instructions allow a low-temperature dishwasher and note handmade colour and size variation. That does not establish the same care for every other material.
Can buyers in Taiwan order it directly?
The line is sold through its website, but Taiwan delivery, shipping charges and returns were not verified here. The sterling price is not a guaranteed landed total.
