Whether she’s your mom, your sister, your best friend, or your teacher, we’ve rounded up a list of gifts for Jane Austen fans that will make them perfectly, incandescently happy.
1. Tiny Jane Austen Books for Your Ears
Choose from earrings that resemble classic copies of Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, or Emma. Get two pairs to mix and match!
2. Floral Happiness Tee
This cute lady’s t-shirt combines an illustration of daisies, lilies, and irises with the quote “completely and perfectly and incandescently happy.” This would make a great gift to remember joyful life events.
3. Darcy and Lizzy’s Love Letters
This tea-dyed paper contains the entirety of Mr. Darcy’s letter to Elizabeth Bennett, printed in a scripted font. Sealed with wax, one reviewer stated, “You can feel the amount of care that was put into this.” Another used the letter to set the scene in a Jane Austen-inspired room.
4. A Bust of Mr. Darcy
If you’re using Darcy’s letter to make your home feel just like Pemberly (after all, Lizzy would have taken it with her, wouldn’t she?), don’t stop there. You also need this 10-inch bust of Mr. Darcy that looks just like the one Lizzy encountered in the halls of Pemberly.
5. “Exemplary Vegetable” Tea Towels
These simple tea towels capture Mr. Collins’s one charming moment. Whether you’re boiling potatoes or serving tea, this towel will make you smile.
6. Mr. Darcy Scented Candles
What does Mr. Darcy smell like? Creamy amber, white musk, and linen, apparently.
7. A Painting of Mr. Darcy
In this watercolor, “a dreamy depiction of Mr. Darcy walking towards you across a misty, cold field, just as the sun peeks over the trees.” Great for fans of the Kiera Knightly film.
8. ‘What Are Men?’ Tank Top
This 1990s-style neon printed tank top features the quote “What are young men to rocks and mountains?” along with a depiction of one such mountain.
9. A Sweatshirt for Those Who Read on the Run
If your favorite Jane Austen fan also runs marathons, 5Ks, or 10K races, this is the shirt for her. On the back, it warns, “Run like Mr. Collins just proposed!” On the front, it says, “Run like Mr. Darcy is at the finish line!” If that’s not motivation, I don’t know what is.
