For Advisory Firms and Advisors
We’d be lying if we said this guide isn’t something we look forward to making all year long. For the third year running, we’ve rounded up more than 30 high-end goods, to gift to your clients, COIs, friends, family, and your beloved Amazon delivery driver.
From soft and fuzzy to sleek and high-tech (with some edible goodies mixed in), we’ve got the full range of gifts for every kind of client—plus, a few more gifting sites that might pique your interest.
For Something That Says “Comfy and Cozy Are We”
Sending your clients something warm and snuggly for the winter might not be the most original idea ever, but it’s a classic for a reason.
Give the gift of ultra lux plush with a Superplush Cuddle Blanket or the rich, soft-to-the-touch feeling of a West Elm Chenille Throw. You can’t go wrong either way, since there’s no such thing as having too many comfy blankets at home (ask us how we know).
Looking for a cozy gift with a cause? Bombas feel incredible on your feet and they also give back. For every pair of socks purchased, another pair is donated. Don’t just take our word for it. Bombas says it best, these mens and womens slippers are “the closest you can be to stepping into a cloud.” Get a matching pair for the couple that loves lazy Sundays on the couch with a crossword and a cup of coffee.
For Something That Speaks to Sports Fans
Want to get something ultra-personal for that football fan who refers to their favorite team as “us?” The New York Times has created custom NFL team books, which help readers relive their favorite team’s biggest moments through past NYT coverage. The only catch is that you’ll need to know your client’s favorite sports team.
For the golfers on your list, the New York Time’s Golf’s Greatest Moments follows a similar premise, chronicling the history of men’s golf through past NYT articles. A subscription to the Golfer’s Journal might just be up their alley as well. This quarterly editorial contains stories exclusively for TGJ members, so they’ll have plenty to talk about at the turn.
Another option for fans of the fairways, Doubloon offers handcrafted ball markers. We know these come with a hefty price tag for something the size of a quarter, so we also found some more budget-friendly options like Seamus Golf and Bogey Bros (fair warning before clicking: some of these are not family or shop-for-in-the-office friendly).
For Something That Whispers Luxury
What do you get the person who deserves the world but already has everything? The Gilded Box creates lux, high-end customized gift boxes featuring all sorts of goodies (headphones, gift cards, candles, knives, you name it). Work with business owners? Incorporate their business logo into a custom, individually designed gift box.
Help clients grow their collection of high-end coffee table books with a new addition, like this one from Perigold. Or, browse their whole selection to find just the right look.
If your clients love to entertain, you can’t go wrong with a bar tool set from William Sonoma or a classic Dutch oven from Le Creuset. Just be warned, some people are particular about their Le Creuset collections, and you might want their input before picking a color. And don’t worry, if Le Creuset commitment is intimidating, we also found this beautiful set from Caraway that comes in nine colors with multiple color-matched add-ons available.
Making a small investment in your client’s health is another great way to give, and something they’re sure to appreciate. Oura rings track over 50 health metrics, including sleep, stress, and heart health.
For Something To Take on Their Travels
Whether your clients travel for work or leisure, it’s always fun to get a little upgrade. For the vacationer, we recommend a matching leather passport cover and luggage tag set or some ultra stylish, modern travel bags from Tumi.
If clients are especially tech-savvy, dot.cards creates next-gen business cards that deliver information to another person’s phone with just one tap. The Pocket personal AI assistant is also useful for business travel, connecting to the back of MagSafe phones and offering AI-driven recording capabilities.
For anyone traveling by air, the Therabody smart goggles are key to getting better sleep, well, as good as one can get on a plane.
For those clients who prefer their travel to take them off the beaten path, this LARQ Bottle PureVis™ is the world’s first self-cleaning water bottle and water purification system, making it a great campsite companion.
And because everyone can absolutely make room for just one more water bottle, Brumate lets you personalize water bottles, tumblers, coolers, and mugs with names, initials, text, and icons. The hardest part will be picking from the 300+ options!
For Something to Snack or Sip On
Satiate the foodies on your client list with something delicious this holiday season. A Gather and Graze luxury gift box by Magnolia comes with snacks, a cheeseboard, AND a Turkish throw so it’s basically a fancy picnic basket… except the basket is a sleek matte black magnetic closure gift box.
Boarderie boards are top-tier choices for those who love to nibble and nosh on something savory or sweet. Plus, they have options for every appetite with colorful boxes of candy and cookies to sports-themed boxes with helmet-shaped cheese slices. Seriously.
Impress the true cheese connoisseur with a William Sonoma cheese box containing crackers, dried fruit, and award winning Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese, a fourth-generation family farm in California.
If your clients have a sweet tooth and good taste, send them a box of chocolate (or more like a tiny work of art) from Norman Love, Compartes , or Cocoa Dolce.
For fans of macarons and everything French, Ladurée speaks the universal language of luxury with its delicacies delivered straight from Paris. Any Francophile will be très contente.
Or, help your clients really get into the holiday “spirit” with a gift box from Elevated Spirit. These uniquely crafted liquor gift baskets let you pick from a full selection of cocktail sets, wine sets, whiskey sets, and more.
And speaking of imbibing, if you have a wine aficionado on your list, this High Camp Parkside Flask holds an entire bottle of wine, keeps it chilled for 24 hours, and comes with two magnetic tumblers so they can pour and share anywhere.
For Something The Whole Family Can Enjoy
Want something your clients can enjoy with their kids or grandkids? This LED Drawing Board guarantees lots of fun family time, perfect for the holidays. If you have a family of pickleball enthusiasts (or aspiring players), gift them these customizable paddles from Tangerine to really up their game.
Speaking of fun for the whole family, this Birdbuddy smart bird feeder is the gift that will keep on giving all year round. With every moment captured through the live feed, this feeder makes it fun for every family member to get into birding (which is becoming a surprisingly trendy hobby for younger generations, bonus points for cool parents!).
And for the grandparents who love to make memories, the Aura digital frame is the perfect way to display travel photos, relive family vacations, and stay connected with loved ones.
Or, Let Clients Choose Their Own Adventure
Sugarwish is our jam. It’s our top choice for team birthdays, client wins, condolences, and holiday gifting.
Send an invitation to your clients via email and let them pick and choose their gifts from a wide array of options. Sugarwish has EVERYTHING. Candy, cookies, popcorn, wine, beer, spirits, coffee, tea, snacks, candles, dog treats, cocktail mixers, hot sauce, customizable mugs and tumblers, plus gift cards for top retailers, restaurants, and activities.
Clients can even choose to donate their gift to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. It’s thoughtful, fun, and makes you look like you have impeccable taste without the stress of guessing.
The Tinggly experience boxes are another great option, especially for clients who prefer to collect experiences over physical items. Think spa treatments, cooking classes, cultural tours, or something more daring, like bungee jumping or a hot air balloon flight. Pretty cool, right?
Other Sites Worth Exploring
Every year, we come across a few sites that have so much good stuff we couldn’t pick just one gift.
Bespoke Post is a lifestyle brand for men that curates items from both independent makers and bigger name brands. It includes everything from clothing and shoes to tech, accessories, sports equipment, and more.
Uncommon Goods is the place to find everything cute, quirky, and unique—think emotional support desk pets and smartphone-controlled paper airplanes. It’s got something for everyone, with items that are hard to find elsewhere.
Flamingo Estate is the place to go for earthy, botanical, Mother Nature vibes. This farm perched on a California hillside grows sage and tomatoes for candles, harvests salt from the cliffs of Big Sur, presses olive oil, and keeps bees for honey. Excuse us while we add one of everything to our own wishlists. (They offer subscription boxes too.)
Teak & Twine is an elevated option for custom, curated gift boxes. Their boxes include luxury goods and brands, perfect for C-suite executives with expensive taste.
That’s All, Happy Gifting!
You know your clients best. Search for something that speaks to their interests and hobbies, and personalize whenever possible. Small gestures of kindness go such a long way in maintaining your relationship, don’t underestimate the impact of a thoughtful gift this holiday season.
One more thing: Always, always include a handwritten note. It’s a great way to make any gift feel more personal.
