A gold coin, a drawing by a famous Polish painter, or… a Hermes Birkin purse . Here are some ideas for Christmas gifts that can also be a good investment. Everyone's favorite holiday is approaching, regardless of age or religion. Most people love both giving and receiving gifts. It is worth remembering that the gift must first of all please the recipient, hit his taste. Of course, it's great when the gift is valuable. However, it would be nice if it was also valuable in the sense that it has the potential to increase in value over time. What can you buy so that it has the potential to increase in value and at the same time bring joy? Below we have prepared some suggestions. Some will appeal to men's tastes, others to women's tastes, and some are " unisex ".
Gold bullion coin - stores the value of capital
The first sensible gift that can gain value in the long term, and which comes to mind first, is a gold coin. As you know, people have loved gold for thousands of years. However, for it to have the potential to increase in value, it cannot be utility gold.
However, you should not buy the first gold coin you come across. First of all, it is not worth the effort to buy the so-called. collector coins, because here we overpay for the bullion, and to buy one whose collector value will really increase significantly, you need a lot of experience and luck.
It is best to focus on bullion coins. These are coins whose only task is to transfer the value of the bullion over time. By the way, they have a nice appearance. You can display such a coin, it can be used as an ornament. But it's best to keep it in a safe.
There are many types of bullion coins. Almost every self-respecting developed country mint mints its own bouillon . It is best to buy 1-ounce bottles, because then you will see the lowest margin. We recommend the Vienna Philharmonic, which currently costs about PLN 8,400 for a 1-oz.

A work of art - a drawing has a greater growth potential than painting
Another extremely nice Christmas gift can be a work of art - a painting, drawing or sculpture. Considering that painting has grown in value quite strongly in recent years, and to enjoy sculpture you need to have quite a specific taste, it's best to focus on drawing. Works on paper, especially those signed by well-known names, have the potential to increase in value.
Auction houses have been doing better and better in recent years, because interest in art has increased significantly. December is traditionally one of the best months in terms of turnover on the art market. The largest Polish auction house DESA Unicum even organizes an auction of "50 Gift Ideas" this year . Painting, Drawing, Graphics”, where you can bid on works at an affordable price.
The auction runs until December 9. And among the works on offer, the following catch our eye: the intriguing "Orion" by StanisÅ‚aw FiaÅ‚kowski, the charming "At the Theater" by Antoni Uniechowski, or "Stroje Ludowe Åowicz" by Zofia StryjeÅ„ska, which has already permanently entered the pantheon of Polish artists.

Classic car - it's worth betting on German quality
If someone has a lot of money and a big gesture, they can bet on the purchase of a classic car. One of the simplest and surest choices will be the age-old Porsche 911. These cars are well-made, timeless beauty, with few faults. Let's be honest, this is not a cheap gift. A decent copy of such a German classic costs several hundred thousand zlotys. The one presented below, offered by Audi Krotoski Warsaw, costs PLN 389,900.

Purse is not necessarily throwing money down the drain
Now something for the ladies. Handbags, oh handbags. The fair sex usually delights in them. Spending on this item doesn't have to be pure waste! One of the "certainties" are Hermes bags from the Birkin series . Over the course of a decade, they can grow in value by several hundred percent. However, this is not a small expense - such a beauty as the Hermès presented below vintage Pre-owned Sac Birkin 35 costs nearly PLN 66,000.
