Housewarming Gifts at Hamilton Home

A housewarming gift should be something the new owners can set out that night without wondering where it goes. That rules out anything too specific and favors pieces in glass, wood and simple metal that work in a city apartment or a house in the country. Hamilton Home has helped Princeton and Palm Beach families welcome neighbors for generations, and the gifts that work have not changed much.

Simon Pearce's hand-blown Nantucket hurricane and Highgate heart dish, made in Vermont, are the two we recommend most often. A Benson decanter or a pair of wine glasses suits a couple who will host. Michael Aram's White Orchid cheese board and Butterfly Ginkgo lazy susan are serving pieces with a sculptural edge. Juliska's Berry & Thread hostess set and Clever Creatures fox salt and pepper set add a little humor to the table, and William Yeoward's classic honey jar with spoon is a small gift that gets used every morning. These suit first apartments, new houses, second homes and the friend who finally finished a renovation.

Visit us in Princeton or Palm Beach to see the pieces side by side, or book an appointment and our team will pull options to fit the home and the budget. Every order is gift wrapped, and if you tell us a little about the house, our team can help you choose something that will fit.

Housewarming Gifts FAQ

What is a safe housewarming gift if I have not seen the house?

Clear glass is the safest choice. A Simon Pearce hurricane or heart dish fits any style of room. A cheese board or a decanter is a close second.

Can I have a housewarming gift engraved?

Many glass and metal pieces can be engraved with a date or the family name. Our team can advise on which pieces and the timing.

Is there a good gift for someone who entertains?

A serving piece such as a lazy susan, a cheese board or a hostess set works well. Our team can suggest options at any budget.

Can the recipient exchange a gift?

Our team can advise on exchanges at the time of purchase, and a gift receipt is included on request.
