Every year of marriage it is customary for the husband and wife to buy each other gifts. Specific years however, demand that specific gifts be given. Twenty-five years of marriage is silver. Here are some ideas of silver gifts to get for him and her.
1. For her: Earings
Box Cutter
You can never go wrong with silver jewellery. While it is not the most luxurious metal it is classic and goes with everything. A pair of silver earings should take your wife right back to her younger days.
For him: Cufflinks
Cufflinks are the most useful and wearable accessory for men. Designed for shirts that have button holes but no buttons, cufflinks add shine and purpose to any outfit. Try silver cufflinks for a classic look.
2. For her: Candlesticks
Every home needs a pair of silver candlesticks. They are ideal for entertaining and for fancy, intimate dinners. Moreover, even when they aren't lit, they still look great and add elegance to a room.
For him: Picture Frame
Buying your husband a beautiful silver picture frame, with a photo of the two of you inside, is a wonderful anniversary gift. He can keep it by his bed or on his desk at the office and think of you every time he looks at it.
3. For her: Bangles
Bangles are one of the funnest styles of jewellery. They cling, they slide, and they shine. They go perfectly with everything from a cocktail dress to a jean jacket and t-shirt.
For him: Pinky Ring
Pinky rings are a genuine sign of prestige. They tend to be handed down between generations of men as the ultimate heirloom. Buying your husband a new one however, begins a tradition, a tradition for the relationship and family you are building with him.
4. For her: Jewellery Box
Beauty should always be stored in beauty, which is why silver jewellery boxes make such wonderful gifts. You can have the lid engraved with her initials or a sweet note, for something more personal.
For him: Money Clip
Men don't always like to carry around wallets. They are bulky and often take up too much room in a suit pocket. Money clips are the perfect solution. They are chic, functional, and very small.
5. For her: Necklace
Nothing says I love you like a necklace. Silver necklaces can be simple and delicate, or vintage, statement pieces. Finding one with a gorgeous stone adds an extra layer of texture and colour, which is bound to complement the silver.
For him: Cigar Cutter
You might hate it when he smokes, but it's your anniversary. Buying him a box of cigars to go with his new silver cigar cutter is sure to please him. Even if he doesn't smoke, silver cigar cutters are elegant, and a useful utensil to have around the house.
