Find a Christmas gift for your grandparents

Christmas and gifts! But what gifts should you give your grandparents?

Christmas, with its magical atmosphere, is one of the loveliest times of the year. The decorations, the lights, the preparations and the sharing… all these things make Christmas and the festive season special moments that create wonderful memories between grandparents and their grandchildren. And if there is one celebration when the whole family gathers together, grandparents included, it’s Christmas. Everyone is there, from the youngest child to the oldest adult! And while Christmas is often thought of as a time to delight children, we mustn’t forget grandparents – after all, it is thanks to them that the whole family exists!

So, phones, tablets or computers at the ready — we’ve gathered all our best Christmas gift ideas for grandparents on this page. Everything you need to make grandparents proud of their grandchildren!

Choosing a personalised gift for your grandparents with Amikado

We know it's not always easy to find great gift ideas. Especially when the recipient is one of your grandparents, who might say that they “already have everything”. So you might think that means no effort required. Think again! A grandparents’ gift always brings joy, because it’s the thought that counts — especially when it comes from their children, and even more so from their grandchildren.

That’s why at Amikado, we specialise in personalised gifts. We offer original items that you can personalise with a name, text or photo of your grandad or grandma, and we take care of the rest in our workshop in Toulouse.

Whether laser-engraved on wood, glass or metal, embroidered on fabric or printed on canvas, your personalisation will always make an impression! A grandparents’ gift designed especially for them by their grandchildren will be completely unique — the perfect surprise this Christmas, and guaranteed with no duplicates!

What Christmas gift should you choose for your grandmother?

If you’re one of your grandmother’s grandchildren and celebrate Christmas with her every year but are running out of ideas — don’t panic, here are some lovely gift suggestions for a grandmother.

Start by thinking about her interests and what she enjoys doing day-to-day.

Is she the type of “granny who bakes” and loves spoiling her grandchildren when they visit? Then treat her to a personalised tray with a photo of the grandchildren, or with a complimentary message design that you can complete with your own words. For more photo-personalised gifts, we also recommend our personalised mug (a classic favourite!) or a photo trivet printed with a family photo.

If she prefers being cosy at home and looking after her living space, choose the “Best Grandmother” cushion or a soft personalised fleece throw embroidered with her name.

We also offer a wide range of personalised textiles: embroidered aprons, pouches, tote bags and shopping bags.

If your granny loves jewellery, we also offer personalised pieces such as engraved pendants (silver, gold-plated or metal), where you can engrave the names of her grandchildren so she can keep them close to her heart. Also discover our engraved keyrings with text, designs or a photo.

For more ideas, you can browse our gift selection by recipient and click on Grandmother, or sort by age group such as gift ideas for a 90-year-old woman.

What Christmas gift should you choose for your grandfather?

No need to rack your brains — we have plenty of personalised gift ideas for a grandfather, whatever his tastes or hobbies.

Discover our personalised knives such as Opinel, Victorinox or Old Bear, engraved with his name: Swiss Army Knife, Opinel Olive Wood Set, Laguiole Le Fidèle (made in France), or our Old Bear pocket knife with a marine-themed design. Perfect for handyman grandads or those who enjoy the outdoors.

We also offer personalised textiles for men such as embroidered golf towels and chef aprons printed with your chosen photo.

Have a look at our personalised leather goods too — wallets, glasses cases, cardholders and more — under leather accessories.

And for the gourmet grandad, the Rothschild sommelier set makes a truly great Christmas gift.
