Eleven is a lucky number for many people. They're tickled to see 11:11 on a clock or to reach 11/11 on the calendar in November. It's a lucky anniversary number, too: It means that a couple has been committed to each other for more than a decade! Each anniversary year comes with special symbols, and it seems fitting that the traditional gift for 11 years is steel. Couples who reach this milestone are made of strong stuff.

11th Anniversary Symbols

  • Traditional: Steel
  • Modern: Fashion jewelry
  • Gem: Turquoise
  • Flowers: Tulip or Morning Glory
  • Color: Turquoise or yellow

For this list of the best 11-year anniversary gifts, we included one of our top-tested picks for the best stainless steel cookware sets (it's a great excuse to upgrade), jewelry that represents your union and even some custom items. If you're not looking to splurge, though, no worries — we have lots of smaller, giftable items.

Our top 11-year anniversary gifts

As always, it's the thought and sentiment that count and not how much money you spend. If you're not a part of the happy couple, but buying for a duo celebrating 11 years, you might also check out our guide to the most thoughtful gifts for couples.

"We Made a Family" Customizable Shelf

"We Made a Family" Customizable Shelf

This little gift appears in many of our anniversary gift guides, but we can't help it, we think it's sweet. The 9" x 2" x 3" box doubles as a little shelf where you can sit figures of parents and kiddos. We show the version with three children, but boxes with one, two or four kids are also available. Down the road, you can buy another child figure, and you can even buy the family dog.

Tulips and morning glory are technically the 11-year flowers, but who can resist the classic rose symbol when it comes to love? It's also available in rose gold and gold, but we like the silver to give it that "steel" look.
