What Dream gift do you want to give and/or receive. Price not an issue.

We were recently looking at gifts for my nephew's wedding. Of coarse, there are so many beautiful items that we wished to give.

We settled on a set of six Cutco steak knives.

But that silly little thing called money came into play. :giggle:

Mother really wanted to give them this

$299.95 from www.williams-sonoma.com (http://www.williams-sonoma.com)


Besides the price we went with something more practcial since they are more in need of basics. When we did her shower gift it was hard not to just buy everything. :lol:


We also are keeping gift prices equal to other grandchidren's wedding gifts. :nod:


If we were going for just anything I think we would have been happy to get them a barbaque.

:bear2: So what about everyone else? Post photos - links - ect.

Round is 3 3/4" diam. Imported. Handwash.

Murano Orange Shell Bowl
Italian artisans layer ivory glass over deep orange to create this bowl's luminous bands of color. Generously sized and asymmetrically shaped, it makes a striking centerpiece, whether filled with objects or left empty to reveal its speckles and striations. Handcrafted on the island of Murano, a center of fine glassmaking for centuries. 17 1/4"W x 8"D x 9"H.
