Five Star Gift Ideas

There are several options to choose from for your dad's birthday gift, based on his love for collecting antiques. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Antique Book: If your father is an avid reader, consider getting him a vintage or rare book. Look for a book on a subject he is interested in or a classic literature piece that he hasn't read yet. Check out antique bookstores or online websites for deals.

2. Antique Clock: Antique clocks make a lovely gift and can add character to any home. Look for a type of clock that your dad doesn't have already, such as a grandfather clock or a mantel clock.

3. Antique Map: If your dad likes history, presenting him with an antique map highlighting his favourite city or location can be an excellent gift. Shop online or at flea markets to find antique maps.

4. Antique Toolset: If your dad is handy or a collector of antique tools, you can consider gifting him an old-fashioned toolset. Look for a toolset that comes with some antique tools that your dad may not have yet.

5. Antique Decor: Consider gifting your dad an antique decorative item for his house like a lamp, vase, or a painting, that goes with his antique collection. It will add value and style to his home. Jot down his favourite colours or furniture, so you can find something that fits the theme.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
