Modern Theme for 16th Anniversary Gifts – Silverware

Big congrats! Sixteen years, eh? Time for a celebration. So you’ll be needing to get out the goblets, serving dishes, champagne bucket and candles to really set the scene. Silver is precious, strong and pure – mostly like you, then. The chemical symbol, Ag, stands for ‘argentum’ which derives from a word meaning ‘shiny’. And if the ‘ware’ part of silverware doesn’t appeal, go for some nice jewellery instead.

Gift ideas

  • Any silverware for the home – if it’s shiny, it counts

  • Candlesticks

  • Branded fizz bucket

  • Silver jewellery

  • Silver cuff links

  • Silver nail polish

  • A silversmith course

  • A silver photo frame for your best couple shots

Traditional Theme for 16th Anniversary Gifts – None

There’s actually no defined Traditional theme for this anniversary. The Traditional list makes you wait until the 20th anniversary before next suggesting a gift. But, no worries, you’ve plenty of ideas to be working on from alternative themes on this page!

Gemstone for 16th Anniversary – Peridot (alternatives: Golden Topaz, Aquamarine) 

Peridot is lime green in colour and is believed to bring power and influence to its wearer. A very old gemstone, it has been found in Egyptian jewellery from as early as the 2nd millennium BC when the stones were discovered on a volcanic island in the Red Sea. Peridot in its basic form, olivine, has been found in comet dust brought back from a space probe, and detected on Mars by NASA’s Global Surveyor.

Gift ideas

Any jewellery featuring peridot, golden topaz, or aquamarine: bracelets, bangles, cuffs, necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings. 

Flower for 16th Anniversary – Statice

Statice has lovely purple blooms and is also known as an 'everlasting flower' because its pretty calyx stay on long after the flower has dried. 

Gift ideas

  • A bouquet or a pot of statice

  • Presents with a flower theme that embraces statice (e.g an artphoto or print, fragrant candles, perfume or room fragrance)

  • Gifts with a floral motif (eg handkerchiefs, napkins, underwear)
