I can’t believe 25 years have passed since the early noughties, can you?
It’s strange to think flip phones and low-rise jeans are making a comeback (not in my wardrobe, mind you), but just like fashions change, I'm guessing your tastes and budgets have changed a lot since you tied the knot.
That's why I love helping people find wedding anniversary gifts that not only mean something, but also reflect where you are in life and create a lasting reminder of your journey together.
To save you some time (and keep you firmly in the good books, where I'm sure you belong!), I've rounded up 10 of my favourite 25th anniversary gift ideas.
Which one is your favourite? And can you guess mine?
1. Remodelled Ring (Your Own Y2K Revival!), POA
Your first thought might be buying a new piece of jewellery to mark your silver wedding anniversary, but a remodel of your original rings or other outdated jewellery can be incredibly meaningful.
Remodelling means you retain all of the sentiment while updating the aesthetics to suit your thoroughly modern vibe.
We can take your original gemstones and use them in a brand new ring, and even add new stones in, too - for example, many couples like to add in children's birthstones so it represents the whole family.
In the ring shown above, we created a new, contemporary silver ring incorporating gemstones from our clients’ old jewellery, set in a modern style.

2. Chunky Halo Sterling Silver Ring, £199
For a bold, simple statement ring, you can't go wrong with this chunky halo ring in sterling silver.
The band features a profusion of teeny tiny holes that have been oxidised (blackened) to create a pleasing contrast, with the patterning gradually fading out towards the back of the band.
Priced at £199, this is a great value piece of silver jewellery for a memorable occasion.
3. Dune Extra Wide Silver Ring With Solitaire Diamond, £1,794
For something a little more extravagant, this stunning Dune extra-wide silver ring with a solitaire diamond is a real show-stopper!
Evoking windswept sand dunes, this organically textured piece ring has a smooth inside so it sits beautifully on the finger.
A bold, contemporary statement piece, perfect for a special occasion!
4. Etched Silver & Gold Bangle, £447
This contemporary silver and gold bangle features a hand-etched pattern that adds texture, contrast, and understated elegance.
Each design is drawn by hand and etched into the silver before the recessed areas are highlighted with rich gold plating.
Finished with a soft satin sheen and available in two widths, it’s beautiful worn alone or stacked with other pieces - the ideal way for your partner to make your silver anniversary gift a natural part of her daily style.
5. Spiral Patterned Silver Earrings, £60
If you're on a more modest budget but still want to treat your loved one to a meaningful jewellery gift, look no further than these beautifully delicate spiral stud earrings.
Serendipitously, I designed these earrings 25 years ago as one of the first pieces in what became our ever-popular Patterned Collection - making them a very apt gift for your silver wedding!
Coming in at just £60 (or £77 for the larger version), they have a lovely, satin-soft finish, and each pair is precision-drilled by hand in our Jewellery Quarter workshop.
Take it from me, these literally go with everything!
6. Silver Aquamarine Pendant & Earring Set, £297
This contemporary pendant and earring set pairs sparkling aquamarines with flowing swirls of silver, creating a cool, elegant design that feels fresh but timeless.
The pendant moves freely on a delicate silver chain, fastened with a simple bolt ring for comfort, while each gemstone is carefully chosen and expertly set to show off its natural clarity.
The soft blue aquamarine (the birthstone for March) brings a touch of lightness and symbolises a bright new chapter ahead.
7. Patterned Diamond Silver Bar Bracelet, £243
Bringing a soft sparkle to the wrist, this patterned silver diamond bracelet is the perfect blend of subtlety and style.
It's the epitome of everyday elegance, and comes with a choice of one, three, or six brilliant-cut diamonds.
8. Sterling Silver Cufflinks With Engraved Detail, £153
For the male partner or sharp dresser in your life, a pair of solid silver cufflinks makes a striking gift.
Fun fact: I first designed these cufflinks as a wedding gift for my own husband, and they're now part of our permanent collection.
Handmade in hallmarked sterling silver, each pair is engraved with organic, flowing patterning inspired by nature, then oxidised to deepen the detail and create a striking contrast against the soft satin finish.
9. Mini Layered Sterling Silver Pendant Set, £140
Bring effortless elegance to your partner's everyday look with this layered mini silver pendant set, inspired by seed heads.
The design pairs two delicate pendants - one round, one oval - each on its own fine chain to create a simple, stylish layered effect. They can be worn together or alone.
Shown here in 16" and 18", the set can be customised to your preferred lengths, and they're also available to buy separately, too.
10. A True One-Off (just like your partner), POA
For something truly priceless, commission a bespoke piece of jewellery for your partner to cherish on your 25th wedding anniversary. The handmade silver pendant above was secretly commissioned by a man to gift to his wife on their silver wedding anniversary. It takes its inspiration from our Isis Collection, but features bamboo silhouettes instead, which were significant to them personally.
Or perhaps it could be an eternity ring to signify your eternal commitment, or a gemstone ring with special meaning.
Head to my bespoke rings page to see examples of previous commissions and guide prices to get an idea of what's possible.
By the way, you can commission a piece as a couple or in secret - read this blog about my favourite commission to check out my undercover credentials!

In-person or online silver wedding gift shopping
Recently, a customer came into my studio to check a bracelet he’d chosen for his wife, and left with two because he could finally see and feel the difference in person.
Browsing in person is lovely, and it's a treat for me to meet you face-to-face. However, I know not everyone can make it to the studio, so everything is available to buy online and ship worldwide, with lots of advice and insights on my blog section to help you make the right choice.
If you're unsure what to choose for your partner to commemorate your quarter century of commitment, book a free Zoom or in-person consultation with me, and I'll be happy to help (learn what to expect from a consultation in this blog).
P.S. Did you guess which is my favourite piece, that I wear every single day? Comment below to see if you're correct!
