9th wedding anniversary: pottery
Clay is soft at first and easy to shape, but only firing in a kiln makes it hard enough to last for years. Nine years of marriage is that kind of fired shape: you’ve been through more than one fire together, and you know what holds you in one piece.
9th anniversary gift ideas
- A hand-thrown flower pot from a local potter, with her favorite plant already in it
- Ceramic earrings or a pendant, shaped and glazed by hand in a small studio
- A vintage tin tea caddy filled with her favorite kinds of tea
- A clay ocarina and time to learn one tune he can play for you next anniversary
- An enamel camping mug and a morning coffee you brew for him by a lake
- A retro tin sign with his favorite saying, for the garage or workshop
- A clay piggy bank you’ll smash once you’ve saved up for a shared dream

How to spend the day
Sign up together for a pottery wheel class and make mugs for each other. Pick them up from the studio after firing and drink your coffee from them on every anniversary to come.
Tradition
Poland has a long tradition of folk pottery. Bolesławiec stoneware, hand-decorated with blue patterns such as the “peacock eye,” is known far beyond the country’s borders.
