3- Birthday
- Before you buy: check for '100% UV protection' or 'UV400' on the label — dark lenses without UV protection do more harm than none.
- Not for: someone who wears prescription glasses — unless you're getting prescription sunglasses made
4Books & StationeryBooks & book sets₹300 – ₹1,200Low effort, reads as thoughtful when it fits their interests.
- Birthday
- Before you buy: find out what they've read recently — a book in a genre they already love beats a bestseller they won't open.
- Not for: someone who doesn't read for pleasure
5Art & CraftResin art keepsakes₹500 – ₹5,000Preserved flowers, name plates, coasters and clocks set in resin.
- Birthday
- Before you buy: for preserved flowers, contact the artist before the event — the flowers need to reach them quickly and be dried before casting.
- Not for: a last-minute gift — resin work takes days to cure
How this list is made: only two hard rules — it stays within your budget and never shows what you asked to avoid. Everything else ranks rather than removes, each pick shows which of your answers it matched, and nobody pays to appear here. How GiftScene works
