Many people are guided by two things when choosing gifts: common sense and the rules of etiquette. But in this matter, one should not ignore folk signs. If you yourself are not even susceptible to superstition, think about the person to whom your gift is intended.
People with whom you do not want to part should not give scarves, photographs, watches and amber items. In addition, by giving a watch, you shorten the life time of the one to whom it was presented. It is not yet customary to give any sharp objects.
In the Russian tradition, it is believed that a donated towel will lead to quarrels, so if you want to present something useful, it is better to choose a tablecloth. Such a gift will make you the most desirable guest in the house. It is not worth giving home slippers - they can attract death. It is still not recommended to present alcoholic beverages as a gift, unless, of course, you are going to drink them together on the donation day, since they literally draw out his health from a person.
Handkerchiefs (in particular, handkerchiefs) and pearl products bring tears to a person; it is better to avoid such gifts. Mirrors in themselves carry negative energy, all the negative that was ever reflected in them, so it is also better to refuse gifts of this kind.
It is believed that it is dangerous for a person to give gloves, otherwise in the future he may end the relationship with you for no apparent reason. Surrounded by similar superstitions and lighters. In addition, it is better not to present dear people with perfumery - colognes and perfumes. It is believed that such gifts attract hypocrisy in your relationship.
According to popular wisdom, donation of many things is prohibited. Only if you still receive one of the above as a gift, then do not be alarmed, just give some small coin to the donor. In this case, the gift will become equivalent to a purchase, and the possible negative effect will be neutralized.
