A wedding anniversary is more than a milestone; it is a celebration of a shared journey, enduring love, and the beautiful legacy a couple builds together. When that journey reaches the monumental heights of 25 or 50 years—the Silver and Gold Jubilees—the occasion calls for a gift that is as timeless as the bond itself
At Waman Hari Pethe Sons, we believe that a jubilee gift should be more than a present; it should be a future family heirloom. With a legacy of over 110 years, we specialize in traditional Marathi jewellery that carries the weight of memories and the promise of a lasting legacy. Here are five ways to choose the perfect anniversary heirloom.
1. The Silver Jubilee: 25 Years of Brilliance
The 25th anniversary, or the Silver Jubilee, symbolizes the radiance and strength of a quarter-century spent together. Traditionally, silver is the metal of choice, often represented through Silver Articles or ornate silver jewellery. However, modern couples frequently mark this milestone with 22kt gold or certified diamond jewellery to mirror that silver brilliance. A delicate gold necklace set or a pair of solitaire stud earrings makes for a sophisticated gift that preserves its value as a heritage piece.
2. The Golden Jubilee: A 50-Year Legacy
Reaching 50 years of marriage is a rare and beautiful feat that deserves the ultimate tribute: Gold. A Golden Jubilee gift should reflect the “old-world charm” and solid foundation of a half-century of companionship. For this occasion, gifting a long mangalsutra or a traditional Maniwati design is highly symbolic. These pieces serve as a testament to handcrafted gold jewellery, representing a love that, just like pure gold, only grows more beautiful with time.
3. Redefining Tradition with Modern Mangalsutras
For many Maharashtrian families, a jubilee is the perfect time to upgrade to a more ornate piece of traditional Marathi jewellery. However, current trends show that modern women prefer a synthesis of traditional art and contemporary fashion. At Waman Hari Pethe Sons, we offer diamond-studded mangalsutras and sleek bracelet-style designs. These allow the wearer to carry the symbol of their 50-year bond effortlessly with both Western and Indian outfits.
4. Meaningful Gold Bangles and Kadas
Gifting a pair of Gold Tode or Patlya (handcrafted bangles) is a deeply symbolic gesture for a golden anniversary. These ornaments represent the strength of the marital bond and are often passed down as a family legacy from mother to daughter. For the husband, a sturdy 22kt gold chain—whether a Rope, Figaro, or classic Curb design—offers a regal and practical gift that serves as a cherished keepsake for decades.
