A new home is a new beginning. The first few objects brought into a space can help make it feel personal, lived in and truly yours.
If you are looking for a new home gift, choose something that can become part of everyday life. From a colorful vase to an iconic Swedish votive or something to share around the table, here are a few design gifts made to become part of a home.
For the one who loves flowers and color
A vase is a classic housewarming gift for a reason. Meadow by Sara Persson brings color and an organic expression into the home, with each vase made unique through a technique where colored glass fragments become part of the surface.
It works just as well with flowers as it does on its own.
Bring light, warmth, and atmosphere
Small details can make a new home feel lived in. A votive adds a warm glow to a room and can bring a little atmosphere to everything from a quiet evening to a dinner with friends.
Snowball is an iconic piece of Swedish design and a familiar sight in many Swedish homes. Designed by Ann Wolff in 1973, its textured surface catches the candlelight and gives the simple votive its distinctive expression.
Viva
For something they can use and share
There is something special about welcoming people into a new home with coffee or tea. The Viva Teapot by Matti Klenell bring an everyday Swedish ritual to the table, with forms made for sharing a moment together.
A thoughtful gift that can be used from the very first day in a new home.
For the host
For someone who loves to cook, host and gather around the table, a bowl is a gift that can become part of everyday life. Contrast combines bold color with its distinctive swirling pattern, making it useful for serving while bringing an expressive touch to the table.
A gift with meaning
A new home is also a new place in the world. Earth, designed by Bertil Vallien, represents our planet with a small house at its center. The house symbolizes home, security, family and our place in the world.
For someone starting a new chapter, it is a gift with a little more meaning behind it.
For a simpler take on the housewarming gift
Looking for something with a more minimal expression? Kosta House turns the familiar shape of a house into a simple glass object that can find a place on a shelf, table or bookcase.
Sometimes the simplest gift says exactly what the occasion is about.
A gift that is ready to give
If you want something that already feels like a complete gift, the Wave 3-Piece Gift Set brings together a decanter and two Double Old Fashioned glasses. A simple choice for someone settling into a new home and getting ready to share it with others.
A Gift for Their New Beginning
The best housewarming gifts do not need to fill a room. Sometimes, one thoughtfully chosen object is enough to make a new space feel a little more like home.
