Parsons tables come in many sizes (select accord- ing to your pocketbook) and make great coffee His and Her Collection If the newlyweds have a common interest, gift them with a collector's item related to that inter- est. For instance, if they're both equestrians, you might start them on a col- lection of bronze horses. Sailing enthusiasts would appreciate a replica of an old sailing ship, while book lovers would love a rare edition.
