Original gifts for a woman on the 55th anniversary

choosing a gift for the 55th anniversary of a woman is an extremely responsible business. In addition to the degree of kinship and intimacy, many aspects will have to be taken into account: psychological characteristics of age, social role, level of education, sphere of interests. Before finally answering the important question: what to give, we will discuss everything in detail and without haste.
The 55th anniversary girl – who is she?
For a woman, 55 is the richest age. In this, modern psychologists agree with the ancient sages. Thus, Pythagoras compared the periods of life with the seasons. He likened the age from 40 to 60 years to autumn, when the fading nature is still beautiful, admires with a riot of colors and an abundance of harvest.
In Ancient China, the age from 50 to 60 was considered the last and most fruitful period of a person's creative life, when family and social obligations have already been fulfilled, their own misconceptions have been recognized, but there is still strength and time for a swan song.
The American sociologist Ronald Kessler also called this time the best: "You are not yet bothered by the illnesses and ailments of the elderly, and you are no longer tormented by the worries of young people," he writes.
So, making up a psychological portrait of a 55-year-old woman, it can be noted that she knows her worth and knows that the price is high. Experience, patience developed over the years and sharpened intuition allow her to achieve success in any field of interest, compete with men and even secretly or openly manage them. In the family and beyond, she has achieved the maximum degree of influence, importance and respect.
The wise lady remembers that sunset is inevitable, and it is approaching, which makes her extremely sensitive to signs of attention. However, unlike herself, she is not greedy for cheap fakes, whether it is a fake ring or a fake smile. To hook, penetrate, squeeze out a crystal female tear, you need to try.
So, when looking for a suitable original gift, the first thing to do is to sweep away everything low-grade, unnatural, tinsel, hypocritically modest or pseudo-pretentious. A gift for a woman's 55th birthday just has to be expensive!!! And it's not just about the monetary value. There is no opportunity for exorbitant luxury, compensate with exorbitant emotions. No random platitudes that come to hand, your present should love, praise, cheer up, glorify appearance, talents, achievements and everything that is worthy of praise. This is exactly what she expects and needs from you.
Do not rush to generalize, they are different!

For a sensible congratulatory idea to be born, generalized psychological knowledge alone is not enough. There are much more differences among ladies of the same age than there are similarities. A woman is a mother, a woman is a child, a woman is a boss, a woman is a hostess… Each of them has reached its life maximum, each can boast of the aforementioned autumn fruits.
So, in fact, when you recognize her by the fruits, then a suitable gift option will appear. And beware of confusing and overlooked! What makes the venerable mother of the family happy can infuriate the freedom-loving emancipation. Let's try to figure out who is who, and along the way we will try to guess the anniversary expectations of each of the unique and unrepeatable.
My beloved
Dearest wife, adored mom, the best sister in the world are the main women in our lives, and no matter what gifts we give them, they should be only about the main thing: love!
The one who was there for better or worse until the very day of the wedding deserves a special reward. A symbolic gift can be a mini-sculpture of the patron saints of the marriage of Peter and Fevronia or a cute bronze composition "Cat and Cat". The promise of romantic evenings for two will be paired sets of glasses or candlesticks. A table clock in the form of a heart made of a serpentine and marble will constantly remind you of your undying feelings.
A mother's heart will be touched by a wall decor with an image of children playing, an expensive photo album or a photo frame that stores the happiest family memories.
Even at the age of 55, your sister is the most ubiquitous pest, without whom it would not be so interesting to live. On occasion, it's not a sin for her to show her tongue and pamper her with girly trinkets. Only their price would have to grow, in proportion to their age. For example, bracelets made of mammoth tusk, a female comb or a hair clip made of stained oak are quite suitable.
Personal portraits painted to order in oil or laid out of stone mosaics are also good for the most beloved, they will express everything you would like to say without words.
The female boss

Etiquette prescribes a proper tone for a gift for a lady with a leadership position. Without familiarity, familiarity and in accordance with a high status, everything is possible: a respectable table set, a desk clock-safe. From a slightly more personal point of view: an expensive cup holder or jewelry with a service accent, like a pendant with Swarovski crystals, which, upon detailed examination, turns out to be a flash drive or a money clip.
It is not ethical for subordinates to be zealous in high prices, a brand-name pen or a leather-bound diary bought at random will leave a good impression. Sculptures by the French comedian Guillermo Forcino have proven themselves among the comic presents. There is a funny cartoon for almost any profession, whether the boss is "Madame Doctor" or "Teacher". Is it fun? Yes! And it's also prestigious. And how women's vanity is amused, they say, not everyone like me has managed to grow from an ordinary teacher to a school principal.
The humble heroine is the hostess
Simple, sincere, hospitable. Once, when choosing between a career and a family, she chose the latter, and she never regretted it. She will have numerous relatives at the anniversary table. The neighbors will look in, who were not denied either a ruble before the salary, or a sincere conversation in the stairwell. Old friends, with whom they lay in the hospital together, took the kids to school, will run in. There would be colleagues and colleagues of her husband, whom he brought into the house without warning, and she, without batting an eye, managed to immediately put on the table, so much so, as if she had been preparing for a dinner party for a month. There will be friends of her son and friends of her daughter, for whom she always had a kind word, good advice and something tasty.
And so they are all at the common table, without unnecessary conventions and not empty-handed. They give comfort, peace, and relief from daily housework, tea does not make mother younger, it would be necessary to wean the dishes by hand, and rub each cup with a waffle towel.
The mountain of gifts stacked in a corner grows with each guest. And what is not there! A wicker rocking chair, a designer table lamp, a porcelain set, silver spoons, an amber candy bowl, a painted plate, paintings and antique figurines and the latest household appliances.
With each new gift, the birthday girl's heart skips happily. A five-year-old son saw a rocking chair in a movie and in a manly, businesslike way: "Mom, I'll buy you one!". Wow, I remembered! And she remembered. And the lamp is a lamp! In some ways, she resembles the one who cast shadows on the whitewashed walls of her and her husband's first family nest - a room in a factory dorm. And the service… But s-s-s-s-s! Let's leave the happy hero of the occasion with her kind memories and bright dreams. The necessary conclusions have already been made, right?
She's 18 again!

You have no moral right not to believe in it. Besides, it's easy. She, like N years ago, is full of plans to conquer men, unexplored resorts, fashionable parties. It is not customary to talk about children with her, maybe there is, but, thank God and the good grandmother, they finally flew away.
A career? Otherwise! In the past, she was a model and the winner of the Miss student competition... it doesn't matter, but the fact itself! In the present, at three minutes to three, she is a recognized poet, sculptor, and artist. Or the author of a popular blog. Or....
She can be anything but a boring aunt patiently darning socks to the squeak of her husband's electric razor. And she can't have any husband with an electric razor. She hasn't met her hero yet, but he's about to show up. Fortunately, beauty salons and the wonders of plastic surgery support this holy faith in her. And in fairness, it should be noted that no one really gives her her biological age. It's worth raising a birthday toast for this!
What should I give to the eternal maiden without marriage? Horoscope gifts are great, it's not for nothing that she turns up the volume of the radio in the car during the astrological forecast. Butterflies are flying in her stomach, and she has not forgotten how to flutter herself, so decorative panels on the theme of bright wings or an agate painting with them will also fit in place. Seals are welcome, like Florentine mosaic panels with moustached purrs, and other mi-mi-bears. Money trees? Oh, how great! She believes in their miraculous power and constantly counts on it.
Anything that emphasizes youthfulness and can be regarded as a compliment to unfading femininity is suitable. The vase "The Robe of Venus", temperamental figurines such as the "Passion of the Centaur" from a mammoth tusk, the erotically elegant candlestick "She" or the romantic, in the form of a slipper "Waiting for Cinderella". For those who prefer the image of a militant Amazon, with whom no man is sweet, you can safely hand over a statuette "Joan of Arc", a stiletto "Snow Queen", a mouthpiece made of a mammoth tusk or a damask disguised as a casket.
Women's neutral territory
If you have to choose a gift blindly, without knowing almost anything about the person to whom it is intended, there are always win-win options. A list with a conditional name: "suitable for everyone" may look like this:
- A set for small things – a young lady from 0 to 180 years old is always needed.
- A birch bark document box – beauty and grace do not need comments.
- Wall decor with an abstract plot, such as the Kaleidoscope glass panel, is bright, stylish, and let her guess what.
- A souvenir hinting at the high status and increased value of the addressee, for example, the author's sculpture "Pearl" - you can come up with an infinite number of congratulatory ideas for it.
- An elite gadget with precious decor – do you know someone who will give it up? We don't either.
Flowers?
Of course! A women's anniversary is unthinkable without them. Let's just remind you that positive floral emotions can stay with the birthday girl for years. It is enough to replace an ordinary bouquet with an unfading one. It can be an amber statuette or a ceramic composition. And if you still prefer the natural beauty of fresh flowers, pay attention to bouquets in a vacuum. Whether it will be a basic gift or an addition to a more luxurious one, decide for yourself. In any case, good luck to you in finding a gift, and to your birthday girl, everything she wants!
