- Diwali hampers combine tasty items and trinkets in an ornately decorative hamper for the recipient to use throughout the year. Traditional gifts inside a Diwali hamper include dried fruit, homemade pastries, chocolate and small idols or decorations like candles. Packed and wrapped Diwali hampers are available for purchase throughout markets and stores or create your own handmade Diwali hamper with your favorite gift items.
- Diwali celebrates Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and Kali, the goddess of strength, making idols and images of these goddesses popular gifts among the Hindu community. Idols vary in size and material from small statues to larger, hanging tapestries. Match the size and style of your idol gift with the recipient's own decorative and religious preferences. For example, not all individuals who celebrate Christmas find a large creche appealing.
- Melt last year's silver coins and decorations into the latest fashions for this year's Diwali. Indian artisans can assist you in selecting appropriate types of jewelry or serving platters based on your existing collections. For individuals with flexible gift budgets, glittering diamond necklaces, bracelets and earrings all represent the festival of lights that is Diwali. Other jewels are also acceptable, but diamonds are the most traditional gemstone exchanged during the holiday.
- Modern Diwali gifts incorporate the theme of home and family with a current, practical twist. Decorations, such as clocks, decorative paintings, candles and chinaware, are all popular, utilitarian gifts exchanged during Diwali. Particularly for young couples, household gadgets such as kitchen appliances, elegant cooking tools and cookbooks are appropriate. Give the tech-savy recipient a digital picture frame or MP3 speakers.
