Finding the right gift for friends and family can sometimes be difficult. Sometimes it all seems unnecessary, predictable and banal. In a consumer society like ours, where "everyone has everything", it can be a challenge to find something beautiful and adapt it to the person and the moment.
So maybe the time has come to consider something different, like a work of art. A painting, a sculpture, a photograph, chosen for the person we love. It's a kind of gift made to measure for any moment worth celebrating: weddings, birthdays, a goal achieved.
Few gifts are truly unforgettable, and a work of art is certainly one of them. It's not just an object, it's also the time we've spent choosing the perfect one for the person we're giving it to. The work of art remains and gains in value day by day. And when you buy the work of a young artist, you're supporting their creativity and giving them credit for their work.
Three suggestions for choosing the right gift.
- Understand the taste of the person you're giving the gift to.
Tastes are personal and vary from person to person. We strongly recommend that you find out about the tastes of the person you're buying for. What's their favourite colour? What's the style of their home? Modern, rustic, eccentric, colourful? Do they prefer classical or modern art? Paintings or photography? Do they have any hobbies, interests, a passion that we can find represented in a work of art? It is important to answer these questions before you buy. Try to imagine the work you've chosen hanging in the home of the person you're giving it to. Does it fit in? Would they want to see it every morning? If the answer is "yes", you can be sure you are giving a gift that will be appreciated and remembered.
- Know what our budget is.
We don't have to go into debt to buy a work of art. There's a misconception that buying art is out of reach for most of us, but it's actually quite the opposite at the moment.The affordable art trend, art for every pocket, is spreading and many emerging artists prefer to sell their work at affordable prices. Set your budget and browse the options on our Domi Gallery website: you will find that there are many options for many budgets and many needs. Spending a lot of money doesn't always guarantee a perfect gift. You might be surprised to find something cheaper and better suited to your search. And always remember that a work of art is a great investment, as most of them can increase in value over time.
- Personalise the gift by considering the type of space.
If you know the taste of the person you're giving the gift to, take that into account when choosing the object: not everyone likes to have ornaments around the house, they may be minimalist, they don't like colourful things, they have children, so they're unlikely to expose fragile things. Not everyone lives in a large flat where they can display a large painting and everyone's taste in their home is extremely unique. On our website you can choose the perfect size and frame for the person you're giving it to.
