~ LEATHER ~
Leather clothing and personal items are difficult to share, so we suggest you leave those 10th anniversary gifts for husband and wife to give each other. Two exceptions might be
- a multi-drawer leather jewelry box, if it's big enough for two.
- a large hanging toiletry bag to share when they're packing/traveling light.
For entertaining, a leather ice bucket is a smart 10th anniversary gift. When your anniversary couple goes to visit friends, this handy wine carrier will hold the playing cards too.
Gifts with leather trim - like this striking southwestern vase - reflect the leather theme. Inlaid leather adds a richness to furniture as well as chess boards, picture frames, and other items that make great 10th anniversary gifts and are available at many price levels.
Remember also to include genuine suede in your thinking; suede throw pillows will lend a feeling of comfortable luxury to the family room or den.
For something a bit different, this tooled leather magazine rack from Peru is a unique ten year anniversary gift. Did a fireplace bellows occur to you? Suppleness and durability are important in a bellows, so leather is definitely better than a synthetic material.
Along with the dictionary, a world globe kept in the dining room will resolve many a dinner-table discussion (and, yes, globes come in leather!). Leather-bound dictionaries and favorite books are also handsome 10th anniversary gifts.
