Rita Konig has turned her decorating eye to 'Handblown Martini Glasses' and a broader household-goods line, giving the classic cocktail vessel a slimmer stem and a dishwasher-safe borosilicate build. The interior designer created, sourced and commissioned the collection herself, and the martini glass is handblown in Venice.
The range also includes boxy garden baskets, a pumpkin-shaped silver ice bucket, a "potion" bottle, furniture and ceramic nesting bowls in cream, mossy green or dusky azure. The bowls are sized for food and water, so the same object can sit on display while serving a daily purpose.
Available only on her site, the line turns ordinary home pieces into part of the room's visual mix. It also extends Konig's decorating sensibility into objects people buy directly, not just into spaces she designs for clients.
