The 33rd anniversary, often overlooked by parents who have reached this milestone, lacks recognition and a famous theme or symbol. Consequently, it is easily forgotten and passes by unnoticed without any celebration or fuss. Nevertheless, this year, just like every other, presents a chance to express admiration, love, and appreciation for your parents. With a range of intriguing ideas for 33rd anniversary gifts, whether they prefer traditional or modern tokens, there is undoubtedly a gift that will bring joy and commemorate this special day in a truly memorable fashion.
Some anniversaries are known all over the world for their themes and symbols while other years are lesser known. For example the 50th wedding anniversary is celebrated throughout the world for its association to the precious metal gold, while the silver wedding on the 25th wedding anniversary is known and loved across the globe for its own famous symbol. The 33rd anniversary, like so many other years, has no such well known motif. During the 1920s when the original lists were created linking materials with marital years, only the first 10 years were highlighted as being special enough to warrant attention, followed by every fifth milestone year. However in more recent times, as modern lists were drawn up, the other marital years finally became appreciated for the achievement that they represent and were assigned their own themes, with the 33rd year of marriage being associated with amethyst. If you give your parents a gift of amethysts on their 33rd wedding anniversary you are presenting them with a wonderful and thoughtful token of appreciation, steeping in symbolism and meaning and which also demonstrates the amount of effort and thought that you have dedicated to finding a truly suitable and memorable gift.

What is the Significance of an Amethyst Gift?
For countless centuries, the amethyst has been a most prized gemstone, often considered to be of equal if not greater value than diamonds. There are amethysts among the collections of many of the world’s royal and noble families and also in famous museums, for example the Smithsonian where there is an amethyst which weighs 400 lbs! In the history of religion, the amethyst’s purple shading was though to be a representation of Christ’s special colour. As such, it was used as the stone in Bishops’ rings and it has even found its own mention in the Bible. The amethyst has also featured in other ancient civilizations. In Greek legend, Amethyst was a virgin which had somehow enraged the god Dionysus who was drunk. She called upon the goddess Diana for assistance and she was promptly turned into a white stone. Dionysus was so horrified when he became sober that he sobbed into his cup of wine causing it to spill over, staining the stone. The purple stone was named after the virgin herself, amethyst. It has served many purposes over the years including as a treatment for skin problems, as a detox agent, a headache cure, and a treatment for stomach pain. Its other symbolic meanings include use as a protector for soldiers in combat, as a way of controlling evil thought, to improve a business man’s skills, and as a way to ward off illness. It is also symbolic of humility and modesty, and brings the wearer good fortune and wealth in the future. Giving your parents a 33 year anniversary gift made from amethyst you will be presenting them with a gift that is reflective of years of symbolism. It is a token with the ultimate depths of significance which captures the essence of this marital year’s theme while offering your parents positive thoughts and wishes for the years ahead.
