The notoriously unlucky number 13 is actually not as bad as you think it is—especially when it comes to relationships! In fact, the 13th year of marriage is an extra-special one, widely known as the lace anniversary. But what does that even mean and what type of anniversary gift should you give your partner on this momentous occasion? Just keep reading, I gotchu!

It's custom to give lace on the 13th anniversary because the delicate textile represents the intricacy of lasting love and the intertwining of two people's lives over the years. Pretty cute, right? Citrine, the gemstone associated with success, is also a common symbol for the 13th anniversary. It makes sense, too! Because I'd definitely classify being committed to another person for well over a decade as a success.

On my list of the best 13th-anniversary gift ideas, below, you'll find gorgeous lace- and citrine-themed gifts that are perfect for people who like to stick with tradition. If that's not really your style, don't worry, I also included plenty of regular anniversary gifts for every type of partner—including cozy slippers, a wine subscription box, foodie-approved presents, and a luxury candle.
