11 years - Steel wedding

An 11th wedding anniversary is also called an Steel anniversary and is associated with the Turquoise gemstone. 

Turquoise has a clear, blue colour with black bands running through the gemstone. Turquoise is December's birthstone and symbolises friendship, love, and wisdom, which is a beautiful symbolism to include in a gift for your partner on your 11th wedding anniversary.

WHAT IS A WEDDING ANNIVERSARY STONE?

Wedding anniversary gemstones are a beautiful, symbolic way to mark and celebrate each year in a marriage, with each gemstone carrying its own unique symbolism and story.

From the first wedding anniversary through the major milestones, the gemstones reflect enduring love, loyalty, and your shared history. Many wedding anniversaries also have multiple gemstones associated, offering a choice between colour and stone.

While different cultures and organisations have proposed various lists over the years, the idea remains the same: to mark each wedding anniversary with a gemstone that represents love, history, and you.

A gift on the wedding anniversary is an old tradition. It is a loving reminder of the bond and promise you have made and a great opportunity to pamper your partner. Find the stone for your wedding anniversary and for each milestone in your bond, and use jewellery set with the stone as a meaningful gift.
