Pearl, Ruby Or Diamond Anniversary Gift: A Canvas In Its Colour

Thirty years of marriage for a pearl anniversary, sixty for a diamond one: these anniversaries bear the name of a precious material, and each one has its colour. A canvas by Régine Gardan, hand-painted in oil, takes up that colour without needing to spell it out.

In 2022 I acquired a painting by Régine, while giving a hand to move her paintings. I got to admire many of her works that day. There are all kinds of emotions conveyed with power or softness. This style gives a lot of personality to an interior.

Quality paintings for anyone who appreciates abstract art! Théo keeps his mother's legacy alive with passion and has a sense of service that is rare these days. Highly recommended if you're looking to beautify your home.

How Many Years For Each Anniversary?

Anniversary names vary a little from one list to another. Here are the ones from the traditional British and American list, and the canvases that answer them:

Years marriedAnniversaryThe paintings
30 yearsPearlThe light, pared-back paintings
40 yearsRubyThe red paintings
60 yearsDiamondThe blue paintings

The Pearl Anniversary: Whites With A Pearly Sheen

“Feu Blanc” sends a white, pink and violet flame rising over a cream ground, like the lustre of a pearl. “Pureté” lets pale blues float across a broad white ground.

The Ruby Anniversary: Deep Reds

“Passion” mixes reds, pinks and blacks in broad gestures, the very colour of ruby. The red abstract paintings bring together many others. In Ireland, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands, the ruby anniversary marks forty years of marriage; in France, thirty-five.

The Diamond Anniversary: Icy Blues

Sixty years of marriage, often celebrated by three generations. “Ère Glaciaire” sends turquoises, whites and deep blues tumbling down like a cascade of ice; “Éclairci” opens a wide blue sky above a turquoise sea.

Given By The Whole Family

Children and grandchildren often give together: the price of each canvas is shown on its page. The simulator shows the canvas to scale on a photo of their wall. For twenty-five and fifty years, see our golden and silver wedding anniversary page, and for all the other years, the wedding anniversary page.

Delivered For The Celebration

Each canvas is delivered ready to hang, with its certificate of authenticity. It ships within 3 business days at most after payment, with a tracking number, and standard delivery is free to the European Union and Switzerland, to their home or to the address of the celebration.

A Few Words For The Anniversary

For the card, a few words to use as they are or to adapt:

  • “Thirty years of love, and still the same light.”
  • “Happy ruby anniversary!”
  • “Sixty years together: thank you for showing us the way.”
  • “For your walls, a colour worthy of your story.”
