Gifting items for special occasions

Different occasions demand different gifts. Taking into consideration the place you’re from and the culture you follow, there are various items you can present as the occasion calls for. In Christianity, the more well-known events that more or less require a gift to be presented are baptisms, weddings, confirmations and christenings.

The cross is one of the most common items presented. The Dagmar Cross (In Danish Dagmarkors), in particular, is preferred. It has a rich history too and is no ordinary cross. Worn by Queen Dagmar of Denmark, the cross was buried along with her at her death though it was removed later on. Also referred to as the Wedding Cross, the item worn by the queen was designed with Jesus on the cross against a blue background. Now, a Dagmar cross is usually crafted in sterling silver, depicting saints surrounding Jesus who is positioned on the front. This ancient piece has now become an internationally popular piece of jewelry to gift, owing to its Byzantine style design. The best occasions to present the cross are during baptisms, christenings and weddings.

Ladies watches (In Danish dameure) are also a popular gift item. They’re also easier to purchase as the crosses mentioned above can be a little on the pricey side. Watches come in a wide range of styles. From branded to common, there is something to match every budget. If you’re thinking of getting one, then choose something that matches the personality of the wearer. Most women wear different watches for different occasions. If you’re gifting it for a wedding, then make sure it is a little fancy. It needn’t be expensive but should be dressy enough. If money isn’t an object, then maybe you could gift a set – one that contains watches from casual to formal designs.

Of course, there are other gifts you can present other than crosses and watches. But the two are the most common and most popular so maybe you would do well to follow the ‘tradition’. If you can’t find good quality crosses and watches in your area, then you can go online and place an order. You may also be able to avail of discounts. Just make sure that the website is legit.
