Do you have a present you have treasured since before your teens?

I have a silver charm bracelet that my best friend bought me for my 18th birthday. We have now been friends for 60 years.

I have a carved wooden box with a piece of lava from Mount Etna that my daughter brought back for me from a school trip when she was 16, treasured and on display in my bedroom.

A lovely expensive pen with my name engraved on it from my other daughter . I’m so afraid of losing it I only use it in the house.

Three books of my fathers kept from my childhood, they have coloured “plates” in as illustrations rather than photos . This is the only thing truly from my childhood but the other things are treasured just as much, all from people I loved/love best in the world.

I also still have the bible I was given on starting senior school at 11

Thanks, SachaMac it is special and made something that had become redundant into a family piece. I also have his gold collar studs and collar stiffeners he gave to my father I could have them made into a new piece of jewellery but I like them as they are.
