Anniversaries are milestones. They are a chance to look back at how far you’ve come together and to look forward to the journey ahead.
The gift of jewelry is a natural choice for an anniversary. After all, marriage starts with the exchange of rings. You’ve probably heard of silver (25 year) and golden (50 year) anniversaries, but did you know there is a stone or metal attached to every year?
If your significant other doesn’t wear jewelry, there are other options to choose from. Keyrings, rearview mirror charms, suncatchers, and other decorative items can all be created using the anniversary’s stone or metal.
