Or engraved jewelry with some beautiful messages. My son was very interested in China and Japan when he was 18 years old. I managed to find a girl at my workplace who came from China. I asked her to write “Beloved Son” so that I could engrave it on a piece of jewelry for him. But after visiting every single jeweler they had throughout Uppsala without anyone being able to carve it for me, I put down that project. I bought a beautiful watch for him instead. He was having a piece of jewelry where it says the beloved son.
