Ever heard of silver jubilee? You might have.
How about sugar jubilee? Maybe or maybe not.
All over the world, people commemorate events by celebrating anniversaries.
These celebrations are associated with some particular materials. Conventionally, gifts given out during the celebration should be made of corresponding material.
Let's take a look at the materials :

  • 1st anniversary - cotton
  • 2nd anniversary - paper
  • 3rd anniversary - leather
  • 4th anniversary - flowers, fruit
  • 5th anniversary - wood
  • 6th anniversary - sugar
  • 7th anniversary - wool, copper
  • 8th anniversary - bronze, pottery
  • 9th anniversary - willow, pottery
  • 10th anniversary - tin
  • 11th anniversary - steel

  • 40th anniversary - ruby

For instance, if you are attending the 3rd anniversary of a wedding, you can gift the couple with something made of leather.

So, the next time you attend an anniversary ceremony, find out what year it is and send a corresponding gift.
