So you already know what you’re buying your spouse, you know what your kids want, you’ve already decided what your best friend will get and your parents’ present is just waiting in the closet for Christmas Eve to come.
But what do you buy for the other people in your life? Neighbors, distant relatives that just came back from Europe after years of being away, the friendly librarian, or the nice nurse that helped you when you were sick. You don’t actually know these people very well, so how can you decide what would make a good present for them?
Well, we discovered that there are quite a few neutral, universal gifts that can be offered to almost anyone. Find some inspiration in the list below.
1.Christmas ornaments
You can never go wrong with a nice ornament. They can be admired even by those who don’t necessarily observe Christmas. You can find many lovely models at Pottery Barn for only $19.
2.Après Ski Champagne Goggles
Did you meet this person on a ski slope? Than you will definitely make the perfect decision by getting them a pair of unisex Après Ski Champagne Goggles with Veuve Clicquot logo on the strap and the microfiber bag. Price: $105.
3. Nature-friendly Christmas tree
Do you know someone who is very ‘green’ in everything they do? Then this modern, sustainable Christmas tree will make a great gift for them. It costs $395.
4.Moon Soon lamp
For $754 you can get this weather proof lamp that can be used both outside and inside the house. Light is an important part of Christmas, so the Moon Soon lamp from Tradewinds will make a good gift to put under the tree.
5.Huge Chocolate Set
Michel Cluziel’s chocolate set is every child’s dream! But that doesn’t mean adults wouldn’t enjoy it just as much. The 400 hand made pieces of chocolate retail for $895.
6.The Tantalus case
If you know your gesture will truly be appreciated, then give some attention to the Tantalus case. It is made of Macassar ebony and dark walnut, with nickel-plated elements and a sterling silver plaque for engraving. The case comes two lead crystal decanters. Its price tag sais $3,715.
7.Perrier-Jouët special edition dandy bag
As you continued to read our list, you could notice that the gifts have become more and more sophisticated. That’s only because we know that our equally sophisticated readers need something truly special for Christmas ideas. So here is the Perrier-Jouët Dandy Champagne Bag which comes with a bottle of Fleur de Champagne, a notebook and two ornate flutes. It’s a little over $6,000.
8. Cartier poker set
Our last suggestion is truly special. With $10,000, you can purchase this deluxe poker set from Cartier. But make sure the recipient will fully appreciate the gesture.
You can also send one of these great gift hampers UK and choose from many great options for your distant loved ones such as a sparkling and truffles hamper.
