Historical Inspiration for Modern Anniversary Gifts

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

Finding the perfect anniversary gift can be quite the challenge, particularly if the anniversary celebration you’re planning centers on one of the more notable milestone years. If you’re at a loss in determining which gift or activity might be best, it can be helpful to look the the past and find ways to modernize the traditional anniversary gifts and themes to make them your own.

In the modernized version, the tenth anniversary is the diamond anniversary, which makes the ideal gift a straightforward option.

The next major anniversary after the first year together is the five year anniversary, another occasion fitting for the gift of a five stone ring.

Along with the diamond, the daffodil and the color blue are associated with the tenth anniversary, so a diamond and blue or yellow sapphire ring is an excellent, meaningful anniversary gift. When it comes to the five year, the gemstone connected with this anniversary is the sapphire, it’s color is pink, and its flowers is the daisy. This gives you a lot of options in choosing the perfect piece of jewelry as blue, pink, or yellow sapphires alongside diamonds in a five stone or eternity ring would be an appropriate choice with a nod to these traditions.

Setting the right scene to unveil your ten or five year anniversary gift also plays a role. Wine, especially port, has a history in anniversary symbolism, as does mead, so dinner or tapas paired with one of these will set a perfect romantic mood.

In the end, of course, it doesn’t matter how traditional or trendy your gifts and celebrations are; if your jewelry and other gifts are chosen with love and attention to detail, your anniversary will be as joyful as your wedding day.
