Traditional 5th Anniversary Gifts: Wood for a Fifth Wedding Anniversary

The Traditional Anniversary Gift List suggests wood for a 5th anniversary. What makes it a special gift for a fifth anniversary? Firmer than fabric or leather, wood is also more durable. It is more malleable than the metals celebrated in later years, such as silver or gold. Naturally beautiful, wood seems an apt choice to celebrate 5 years of marriage.

The Modern Anniversary Gift List suggests another possibility for a fifth wedding anniversary... silverware. High quality silverware would accent the china and crystal purchased in earlier years. It's a useful gift for the home, if these items haven't been picked up in the proceeding years.

Our 5th anniversary gifts are shown below. Most of these gift ideas incorporates wood within them. Several jewelry designs have been created specially to celebrate this anniversary year... they include our Starry Sky Necklace, our 5 Diamond Facet Gift Set, and our Heart Rosette series.

We've also packed our popular Ogee and Harmony Heart designs in lovely wood boxes for the occasion. And imported from Japan, we now carry a few lovely lacquerware pieces, a "Sun and Moon" lacquered wood pendant, and an "Orchid Jewelry Box." So choose any of these items to celebrate 5 years of marriage with style, and a bit of tradition!
