But first, what are the traditions around a fifth anniversary? The traditional fifth anniversary gift is wood. We've rounded up plenty of wood fifth anniversary gift ideas for you, from unique wall art to handy kitchen utensils. The modern five year anniversary gift is silverware, so we included options for this as well.

We've also included some sapphire-colored items that don't have literal gemstones, but that we think deserve a look.
Additionally, if nothing on-theme catches your eye, there are a few general anniversary gifts in here that are special whether you're celebrating your first anniversary, your fifth one, your 10th anniversary, or beyond.
