Wedding gift idea: Texas Crystal

Give them something striking with elegant western appeal:  etched crystal.  Wine glasses, carafes, even book-ends are decorative as well as functional, so they’ll be as pretty to display as use.  Texas is the land of the longhorn, and this is our crystal:

Wine glass of etched crystal, $49.50

Youcan buy Ann’s Toucan (for Christmas)

Update Nov 15, 2011:  Ole Sparkly found a home!  But come to Ann’s and visit one of his friends!

Wanted:  one very good home with appreciative owner who would cherish and adore Ann’s Toucan.  His name is Very Sparkly and he’s no trouble at all to keep.   Loves to be the center of attention, but is the quiet type.  Definitely one of a kind.  Won’t you make him yours for Christmas???

12,370 pieces of Swarovski crystals cover Very Sparkly, Ann's toucan. He's cast, polished, and rhodium plated on a crystal base. 22" high, $6,500.

Go West, young man!

Truly good Texas and western gifts are not as common as the airport giftshop variety, but Ann’s Fine Gifts hits the mark with unusual and grand Western finds.  Wall art, paintings, and hangings, old maps, armchairs, even a saddle-style barstool are some of the newest arrivals.   Giddy-up on over to Ann’s and have a look.  We even serve Texas coffee, no foolin’.  (Who else would name their coffee “Bubba’s Texas Brew”???)
