1. Antique Furniture Book: Consider gifting your husband a beautifully illustrated and informative book on antique furniture. Look for a book that focuses on the specific era or style he enjoys collecting, whether it's Victorian, Art Deco, or Mid-Century Modern. This gift will provide him with valuable knowledge and inspiration for his collection.

2. Antique Restoration Tools: Help your husband take his restoration skills to the next level by giving him high-quality antique restoration tools. Look for tools such as chisels, scrapers, hand planes, and specialized furniture clamps. Your husband will appreciate the thoughtful gift and be encouraged to continue honing his restoration skills.

3. Antique Furniture Hardware: Enhance your husband's collection by gifting him unique and authentic antique furniture hardware. Look for handles, knobs, hinges, or keyhole escutcheons that will complement the style of the furniture he restores. These small details can make a significant difference in the overall appearance and value of the furniture.

4. Antique Furniture Photo Album: Compile a photo album showcasing your husband's restoration projects. Include "before" and "after" pictures, as well as any stories and memories associated with each piece. This thoughtful gift will celebrate his hard work and accomplishments, and he can proudly display it to share his passion with family and friends.

5. Antique Furniture Workshop Experience: Surprise your husband with a workshop experience where he can learn from professional antique furniture restorers. Look for local workshops or even online classes that focus on techniques and tips specific to his area of interest. This unique gift will give him the opportunity to enhance his skills and connect with other enthusiasts.

6. Visit to Antique Furniture Stores or Auctions: Plan a surprise day or weekend trip to visit antique furniture stores or attend auctions together. Explore different venues that specialize in antique furniture and provide a diverse selection for your husband to discover. This experience will not only fuel his passion but also create cherished memories together.

7. Custom Furniture Restoration Project: Commission a personalized restoration project for him. Find a piece of antique furniture that holds sentimental value or aligns with his taste, and arrange for it to be restored by a professional. This gift will showcase your thoughtfulness and give him a unique piece to add to his collection.

Remember, when choosing a gift for your husband, consider his personal preferences and interests.
