10-Year Anniversary Gifts for Your Wife: Diamond Jewelry
The traditional 10-year anniversary gift is tin or aluminum, and the modern gift is diamond jewelry; diamond is also the 10th anniversary gemstone. For a wife, that usually means diamond studs, a diamond necklace or an anniversary band. Below are 15 diamond gifts in four budgets, each labeled lab-grown or natural.
There is no single authoritative anniversary list; we name the source for each one.
Traditional tin, modern diamond
Tin and aluminum stand for durability, a fair thing to celebrate after ten years. Diamond, the hardest natural material at 10 on the Mohs scale, says the same thing more brightly. Many couples combine the two: a diamond gift, presented in a small tin box.

10 year anniversary rings and bands
An eternity or anniversary band is the classic 10-year ring, worn beside her engagement ring. See our diamond anniversary bands. Rings are made or sized to order and are final sale, so check her size against a ring she wears with our ring size chart.
Lab-grown or natural diamonds for the 10th
Both are real diamonds with the same chemistry and sparkle. Lab-grown lets the same budget buy a larger stone; natural appeals to someone who values a stone formed in the earth. To picture sizes, use our diamond size chart. For other years, see anniversary gifts by year.

10 year anniversary gifts: questions
What is the traditional 10 year anniversary gift?
Tin or aluminum. The modern 10th anniversary gift is diamond jewelry, and diamond is also the 10th anniversary gemstone on the list GIA publishes.
What is a good 10 year anniversary gift for my wife?
Diamond studs, a diamond necklace or an anniversary band are the most-worn choices. Studs and necklaces need no size; a band needs her exact ring size and is final sale.
How much should I spend on a 10 year anniversary gift?
There is no rule. Choose what she will wear and what you can give comfortably; this guide has diamond pieces from under $500 to over $10,000.
Lab-grown or natural diamond for a 10th anniversary?
Both are real diamonds. Lab-grown gives more size for the budget; natural has its origin in the earth. Every piece we sell is labeled.
What is the difference between an eternity band and an anniversary band?
An eternity band carries stones all the way around; an anniversary band usually carries them across the front only, which makes it easier to resize and more comfortable for some.
Methodology & sources
How we chose. Our jewelers shortlisted pieces from the live catalog, then a panel of four reviewers (a merchandiser, a gemologist, a search specialist and our creative director) chose the most appropriate pieces at four budgets. Every pick was checked as active and available to order on the date below; prices on this page update live from each product. Every stone is labeled lab-grown or natural, as it is on the product page. Nobody paid to be included.
