I am allready looking for the right christmas present for my girlfriend this year. It isn’t really easy, as she has enough money to buy her the things she wants. So it really needs to be something special and original. Still searching. Any other good ideas?

For me the best gifts are: Serwis obiadowy

Ah, right. I forgot about self-promotion :P (Or rather my wife promotion)

I may add quality products like Vistula/Wólczanka (shirts, suits etc) and http://www.wittchen.com/. Especially the last one is worth mentioning, though rather expensive.

I think we also have some nice furniture companies. Example is Black Red White, I think it’s popularity in Poland matches Ikea.

But, it’s true that many companies went bankrupt. It’s hard, especially if you’re looking for ‘gifts’ (you rarely will buy a kitchen table as a gift, for example).

My favourite Polish product with consistent quality outstripping that of the competition is one that all men will appreciate. I know it’s not an old product and that it now belongs to gillette (so quality may drop) but I’ve always found Polsilver throwaway razors to be the dog’s bo****ks.

Bartek, thanks for the comment.

If I had been able to find out the temperature in Berlin (pre Internet days) I would have been wearing them there as well!!!!

When it comes to temperature I have always happier running around in 40 degrees rather than -10!

Anyway, took one look at Florianska gate on the web this morning and went and bought warmer hat, scarf and gloves!

The Chodzież one is interesting. That has to be one of very few old Polish brands that have survived. Quite remarkable.
