PLATINUM - 70th Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas
(or Iron & Smokey Quartz Gemstone)
A
70th wedding anniversary is a rare event indeed. It’s a remarkable event involving great genetics and not little bit of luck to have both husband and wife surviving well into their nineties and still hanging in there. It is therefore no surprise that a 70th anniversary is usually publicised in the press with well wishers paying their respects from all corners.
A traditional 70th anniversary gift is one of
platinum, and although one immediately thinks of anniversary gift ideas such as rings and other items of jewelry, it is perfectly suitable and perhaps desirable to give an ornamental gift which incorporates a 70th anniversary gem or element or even a 70th anniversary symbol such as music from the year they were married.
Oh! I almost forgot. The low cost alternative to platinum is
iron. No, I don't mean
an iron, one of those handy appliances for removing creases from items of clothing. That would only stir non-domestic types to acts of violence involving a handy appliance. Perhaps something like a nice cast iron gate for the more practical types or a Viking helmet for those looking for something ornamental. Personally, I've always found the ones with horns more pleasing.
