We have the same problem, which is why we worked hard to put together this gift guide for the men in your life. We’ve selected 40 crave-worthy gifts that your father, brother, husband or son-in-law is sure to love.

Fine crystal makes a wonderful gift for anyone on your list – from newlyweds to hostesses to grandparents. Crystal vases, bowls, and candle holders are beautiful on display and easy to enjoy year-round.

Full-lead crystal pieces (those containing 24% of more lead) are exceptionally brilliant and extremely resilient, so crystal stemware will have very thin (but very strong) rims.  And don’t forget: true crystal pieces produce a beautiful tinkling sound when lightly tapped, so they’re very handy when you’re ready to make a toast.
