Whichever special gift you decide to buy, you may like to consider a pair of Champagne Flutes from the Crystal Gifts Range?  They are printed in either a Frost colour (looks like engraving), Silver (for a 25th Anniversary), Red (for a 40th Anniversary) or Gold (for a 50th Anniversary).  They are inexpensive, but add that little touch to make the occasion more memorable.  Packaged in branded, silver coloured boxes, they can also be posted without any further packaging.  A superb additional Anniversary Gift for Parents!

To give you some idea of what is available for an Anniversary Gift for your Parents, consider your family name - and Heraldry.  Your family crest can be researched from historic volumes held in our central library and the oldest selected.  The shield is extracted and set in our special embellishment - and deep engraved into your choice of glass or crystal, along with commemorative words.

For another good idea for a special Anniversary Gift for your Parents, is to borrow their family album and select an image of them on their Wedding Day.  Then get them to pose, left to right, in the same way as they did in that photograph and take the image of them as they are today.  Using special technology, the two images can be engraved into a suitable piece of glass or crystal, along with a commemorative message.

A Silver Anniversary Gift for your Parents needs to have some silver involved?  No problem, because any of the Professional Glass Engravers listed in the Directory can infill engraving with silver.  Engraved glass or crystal, commemorating the occasion, will make a superb 25th Anniversary Gift for your Parents.

As you can see from the examples above, Heraldry and Photo-engraving are just two ideas to create something special for your parents silver wedding anniversary.  Maybe they are real 'Stars' in your eyes?  Take a look at the silver colour Star, optically cemented to the crystal in the picture on the right.  A favourite poem or love song engraved into the crystal, along with your special message, will make a 25th Anniversary Gift for your Parents that they will display for all to see.

You will find alternative solutions in the websites of all the Professional Glass Engravers listed in the Directory, including silver stands holding optical crystal.  Space enough for a design and commemorative words, celebrating your parents 25th Anniversary, making a personal gift which will be treasured.

30th Anniversary Gift for Parents

A 'Pearl' Wedding Anniversary Gift for your parents can be beautifully created using glass or crystal, deep engraved with a special design and appropriate words - then infilled with white.  The white will emulate the colour of pearls, making your 30th Anniversary Gift for your Parents extra special.

For an idea which the writer does not think has been considered before: a scattering of solid circles engraved into the rear face of a piece of clear crystal (jade edge glass would not work, due to colour refraction), very deeply engraved and infilled with white would look like Pearls.  On the front face, inside the scattering of Pearls, engrave a commemorative message.  The result would be a unique 30th Anniversary Gift for your Parents!

40th Anniversary Gift for Parents

Infilling deep engraving with the ruby-red colour, suited to a 40th Anniversary, is achievable by any of the Professional Glass Engravers listed in the Directory.

The single danger is in selecting jade edged flat glass, because the jade discolours any colour infill on the rear face - so that when you look through the glass at a colour infill, it has a green hue to it.  It is okay to use colour infill on the front face of jade edge glass though.

The image on the right, of WhiteFire Optical Crystal, has been infilled with a red colour which is safe to wash and is impervious to water.  The colour will last for many, many years.  The beauty of a 40th Anniversary Gift for your parents like this, is that, unlike a single stone of Ruby, it is aimed at both of them and can be engraved to commemorate the Ruby Wedding.

50th Anniversary Gift for Parents

The Golden years of your parent's wedded years and you want to make it into a special occasion.  Glass and Crystal can do that for you, with a Wow!  The beauty is in being able to infill the engraving with gold, like the example on the right.

Heraldry is a wonderful medium for a 50th Anniversary Gift for your Parents, because their wedding was the joining of two families.  After 50 years together, they have made their own 'history' - and Heraldry is all about History.  From a library of historic books on Heraldry, research is conducted to find the oldest crest for each surname or variant.  The shield from the crest is set within a special embellishment and deep engraved into the glass.  See the image at the top of this page for an example of the layout which can be achieved when gold colour is added.

Another good idea for a 50th Anniversary Gift for Parents is a piece of glass made entirely by hand in the UK.  Rock Tablets are manufactured in The Highlands of Scotland and, due to the unique edge, they have provided fascination for Film Stars and Royalty (even the Queen has been presented with at least one).

Supplied in a rigid blue branded box (each shape & size has its own name), they are accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, guaranteeing their provenance.  Rock Tablets make beautiful 50th Anniversary Gifts for Parents, especially if both front and rear faces are engraved - image on one face and text on the other.

Go on - treat your Parents to a really beautiful 50th Anniversary Gift which was hand made in The Highlands of Scotland!
