The Best Retirement Gift Ideas
Retirement is the most important day in a person's life, and it should be celebrated properly. It's better to avoid useless gifts, and instead focus on objects that are useful and beautiful to display at home, without being too demanding. To honor a colleague, you need a nice retirement gift that looks among the most expensive on the market and makes a good impression, and the Leather Bound Notebooks are perfect for this purpose. If a special colleague is retiring, the Wooden Boxes are a very unique gift for the most difficult tastes, also useful for the future. If your friend is a musician, an even more fitting gift will be the Wooden Music Box and Musical Box, romantic and elegant. If the boss is retiring, you need to choose a gift that is elegant and refined, to thank him for his leadership and support as a boss in the workplace, and that expresses all your esteem: certainly a special and original Fountain Pen in inlaid woods will be a beautiful and unforgettable retirement gift. When it is a relative, such as the mother, an aunt or mother-in-law, if you want to wish good luck for the future you can choose between the Wooden Eggs and the Photo Albums with decorated Leather covers. On the L'Arte de' Ciompi website you will find the perfect object: the thought will be appreciated and it will be kept among the most beautiful memories of colleagues.
The Unrepeatable Anniversary
Golden, Silver, and Bronze Wedding Anniversaries are special occasions in which to seal a cycle of love that has run its course. Whether you want to give to a Man, a Woman, or a Couple, it is important to carefully choose the gift with which you want to surprise. If you want to amaze your parents, or even if it's the grandparents celebrating, a Photo Album is a classic and traditional gift that never goes out of style, especially if you give it with some photos already printed and placed in the first pages, perhaps accompanied by romantic or funny dedications. The first anniversary, then, is even more important for a couple. Jewelry Boxes and Wooden Gel Pens are just some small ideas you can consider. Also discover the dedicated gifts on the pages Gifts for Him and Gifts for Her, and you will be sure not to go wrong.
The Birthday Not to Forget
Is your child turning 18? The eighteenth birthday of a boy or girl, as we know, is the most important day for a young person, because it marks the start of their legal freedom. What could be better than a hardbound Leather Notebook in an antique style for a lover of antiquity and diaries? Or a Clock symbolizing lightness and feeling free, like the Hot Air Balloon or the Hummingbird? Even for a beloved Thirty-year-old you can choose an elegant decorated Planner to let her freely write her thoughts about life's milestones. A gift for an important birthday like a fiftieth is much appreciated by a girlfriend or wife with difficult and refined tastes, and an elegant and charming photo album is an idea that will be used forever. For women in their fifties, Music Boxes and decorated Jewelry Boxes are a pleasure to use and to keep on display at home. For an eighty-year-old, whether a parent, a more distant relative or a father-in-law, it is important to know that they are surely someone who already has everything, and it is normal sometimes not to know what to give anymore. Think about the passions they had when young, and look for a gift related to Art, or Music, or a symbol that recalls their youth, so you can celebrate their Eightieth serenely.
Graduation and Master's Degree
Even when celebrating a Graduation, it can be difficult to decide what to give the graduate. It is certainly a special day for a university student. If you want to honor the thesis, you can find out what it was about, or even better, give something related to the profession the future graduate will pursue: for example, the Antique Herbarium will be perfect for Pharmacists, Doctors, and Nurses, while the Tuscan Almanac or Medieval and Vintage style Notebooks will be perfect for a History scholar. For those who have worked in Art History, you can choose from many ideas inspired by the greatest Italian artists of the past, from Botticelli to Michelangelo, in Sketch books, Drawing Albums, and Notebooks with retro decorations.
Gift Items Always Perfect for the Most Special People and Occasions
The main advice when you have to make a difficult and important gift is always the simplest: think about what the recipient loves, their hobbies, their preferences, and give something that you like first of all, because a heartfelt gift is the one that works best of all. The most beautiful thoughts to surprise a boyfriend or husband who has been promoted at work can only be a gold-plated or chrome inlaid wooden pen. For those who love Art, you can choose from inlaid Mechanical Pencils for freehand or technical drawing, all handmade in inlaid wood. For a special occasion like admission to the Conservatory, it may be wise to choose an allegory to Music such as the Musical Instruments Clock or the Music Box. For those who have just debuted in Show Business, whether Theater or Television, the Decorative Proscenium in wood are very original ideas. Then there are gifts to repay a favor received, and certainly any small luxury item will be perfect, try to match the cost to the value of the help!
