Luxurious Gifts For The Man In Your Life This Valentine’s Day
As perhaps the most romantic day in the calendar swings around again the search for top-notch luxury gifts is on once more. If you still haven’t found that perfect present for the man in your life, browse this brief selection of ideas for luxury items that might just provide the right solution. There are some fabulous choices including watches, jewellery, antiques, artworks and luxury glassware as well as gadgets that can’t fail to impress.
Wristwatches
Leaving the luxury yachts to one side, let’s look at the impressive range of timepieces available from the top of the range designers. When it comes to contemporary watches, Montblanc is one of the best sellers, closely followed by Longines and Gucci. Two-tone watches with bracelets are particularly popular, although smart leather straps are still favoured for watches worn in workplaces. Unless he already has two watches, your partner might enjoy being able to switch pieces around depending on the circumstances.
Jewellery for men is much more sophisticated than ever these days, and there are some stylish storage solutions in leather or metal for designer cufflinks and tiepins. Montblanc and Jacob Jones also make passport holders, and wallets and a matching set are particularly smart.
Art and antiques
If your other half is the creative type you might want to browse some of the fine art collections for a suitable print, painting or contemporary sculpture. Galleries often place advertisements for exhibitions in lifestyle magazines, giving you the opportunity to look at their artworks before making a purchase. The same is true of antique dealers who regularly hold auctions or sales of superb luxury artefacts.
Celebrations
When it comes to a celebration, especially if you plan to have a romantic drink after dinner on Valentine’s Day, the presentation of elegant gin glasses from Dartington Crystal are an ideal luxury gift. There are several different styles available, from slender highball glasses to glistening stem glasses adorned with Swarovski features for a glamorous finish. You can have the glassware personalised for a truly unique luxury gift.
Out and about
If your man is a fan of the great outdoors but prefers not to leave luxury at home, you can always choose some of the latest stylish gadgets to make his life easier. The EcoCapsule Portable House takes glamping to a whole new level, with internal compartments for a toilet and shower, a bed that folds away, a kitchenette and space where you can live and work (if you must). With flexible storage units, the spherical shape makes it easy to collect rainwater and filter it to provide drinking water. Now that surely is a home from home.
Finally, for a soothing experience, you could always buy him a luxury coffee table with a built-in aquarium. The glass table top is supported by a full-sized fish tank made from acrylic, allowing your partner to gaze adoringly at his favourite tropical fish while relaxing, with you by his side, naturally.
