Giftopix Congratulations! According to the traditional symbolism of wedding anniversaries, you're getting into the realm of super-precious materials!
For instance, the traditional symbol for a couple's 40th wedding anniversary is ruby, one of the most valuable gemstones in the world (just so you know, some experts affirm that top-quality rubies are worth much more than diamonds, even).
Ruby represents passion, wisdom, wealth, and life power: cool things to have in your marriage at any point, including 40 years into the adventure!
