Modernchina anniversarygifts

Two decades on from saying your I dos is the perfect opportunity to shower your spouse with the most meaningful and best 20th wedding anniversary gifts—and lots of them. Traditionally, twenty years of marriage calls for china—a fine, fragile offering, which stands for the delicacy of your relationship—as well as emeralds—the rich, green gemstone associated with Venus, the ancient Roman goddess of love. In more recent times, platinum has also entered the equation. And why not? Beloved for its durability, consider it a material as strong as your union.

Chinagifts for 20thanniversary

When it comes to gifting china, it’s impossible to err with one of Hermès made-in-France porcelain plates—printed with a galloping horse, perhaps—or a brightly-colored accent from Ginori, which has been creating keepsake pieces in Tuscany since 1735. Should your partner prefer something more pared-back, look no further than Feldspar’s hand-crafted cobalt-rimmed ice cream bowls. Best of all? They’ll be kept in the family for the years—and generations—to come.

An emerald offering is bound to put a gleam in your beloved’s eye, especially when it comes in the form of an astounding 22-karat gold cuff adorned with an oversized square-cut gemstone. Look, too, to faceted, dangling earrings from Prounis, and a weighty Art Deco-esque band, which is worthy of a vow renewal.

20-yearanniversarygift traditional and modern

The modern gifting take on the traditional 20th wedding anniversary milestone is platinum. With this in mind, opt for a simple but striking necklace or a made-in-Germany pen— finished with a pearly star emblem—that will last a lifetime. And why not top your token(s) of affection off with a tin of farm-to-table Platinum Oetra sturgeon caviar? It will make the unwrapping all the more delectable.
