Five Star Gift Ideas

A Valentine's Day gift idea for your wife, who enjoys cultural anthropology, would be a unique present that combines her interests with something personal and meaningful.

Here are some ideas:

1. Cultural Anthropology books: Consider getting her a book on cultural anthropology, such as "The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down" by Anne Fadiman, "The Origin of Species" by Charles Darwin or "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jared Diamond. She will appreciate the thoughtful gesture and enjoy diving deeper into her passion.

2. Unique cultural artifact: Consider getting her a unique cultural artifact such as an African mask or South American pottery. These items will not only look great in your home but will also show your wife that you pay attention to her interests.

3. Cultural Anthropology tour: Another great gift could be taking your wife on a trip to a place that has a rich cultural heritage. A guided tour through a museum, a cultural center or a historical site will let her explore her love of cultural anthropology in a hands-on way.

4. Cultural Anthropology movies: Consider getting her a DVD or streaming subscription featuring movies and documentaries about anthropology. Some good choices include "National Geographic: Inside North Korea," "The Anthropologist," and "Samsara."

5. Handmade gift with cultural symbolism: You can also create a handmade gift that incorporates cultural symbolism. You might consider using items that relate to cultural anthropology, such as artisan-made jewelry from a specific country, a painting inspired by a significant cultural event, or relaxing musical compositions that represent traditional cultures.

No matter what gift you choose, it is important to remember that the most meaningful gift is one that is personal, thoughtful, and tailored to the recipient's interests. By combining cultural anthropology with a unique and memorable gift, you can show your wife how much you care and how well you know her.

Or you can get her a star map with the date of your first kiss.

David Dickason says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“Ordered a map of the stars above us when my wife and I realized that we wanted a friendship to turn into something more - gave it to her yesterday (Valentine's Day) and got a most enthusiastic response. We are best pleased!”
