40 Paris Themed Gifts: Ideas for Everyone on Your List

Every time I visit Paris, I bring back champagne and macarons as a little gift for myself. 

I also bring home little items for friends who have birthdays coming up, and almost always something cute for my nephew. 

The crazy thing is that thanks to the internet, many of the sought after Parisian items I bring home can easily be found online. 

So the next time you’re looking for the perfect Paris themed gifts, just shop this list of items that will be a bit of Paris to you wherever you are in the world!

I’ve divided them into categories to make your gift shopping a breeze.

Paris Themed Foodie Gifts 

Dozen Macarons

As a self-proclaimed macaron addict, I bring home at least a dozen of these treats every time I travel. 

Pierre Herme is my go-to anytime I’m in Europe, since there’s only one place in NYC that imports these delightful treats. Unfortunately, they won’t ship them, so these are a genuine treasure to bring home. 

If you’re stateside and need a gift shipped, head to Ladurée for your macaron needs. I’d say they win second place for the most delicious macaron in Paris, and they’re available to ship!

Bottle of Champagne

Another item I rarely leave France without is at least one bottle of champagne. My go-to is from the well-known house of Ruinart.

Of course, most of the French champagne houses sell their delicious bubbly stateside, but the mark-up in price is noticeable. 

Besides Ruinart, these are some of the best French champagnes to keep an eye out for:

• Krug
• Duval-Leroy
• Perrier-Jouet
• Moet & Chandon
• Veuve Clicquot

Set of Champagne Coups

To go along with the champagne, gift your pal a set of these beautiful champagne coups.

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s time in Paris inspired this set by the History Company.

My favorite thing about them, besides how stylish they are, is that they’re dishwasher safe!

Fun Fact: There is a popular myth that the first champagne coups date back to the 18th century court of Versailles. Supposedly the glasses were shaped around the left breast of Marie Antoinette. Though historians suggest the glasses pre-date this period by about 100 years. 

Paris Themed Wine Charms

Have you ever been at a party and realized, after setting your glass down for a moment, that you do not know which one is yours?

It’s moments like these that these little wine charms from Wine Wife Happy Life will save the day.

They themed each one of these six charms after something special in Paris, making them a fun way to keep track of glasses. 

Eiffel Tower Wine Stopper

Wine stoppers are easily something everyone should have in their homes. 

As someone who stays at a lot of Airbnbs, I’m always surprised how lacking they are in this department. 

Wine stoppers save you from having to fight to squeeze the cork back in the bottle at the end of the evening and really save you if the cork broke while opening the bottle. 

FASHIONCRAFT makes a cute Eiffel Tower stopper that is the perfect little gift for the Francophile in your life!

Paris Cutting Board

Okay, so even though this comes from The Wedding Gift Boutique, you don’t have to be a newlywed to enjoy this cutting board.

It’s super adorable with the Eiffel Tower, and the Seine carved into it. I’d recommend gifting this with a knife and some delicious French cheeses.

You can even have it custom engraved!

Paris Map Whiskey Glass

The second I have a permanent home, I’m absolutely going to order myself a set of these chic whiskey glasses from Or Something.

They etched the glasses with a detailed map of Paris, making them a fun and chic way to imbibe you’re nightly whiskey. 

Bottle of French Wine

If your buddies aren’t partial to a bit of bubbly, give them a bit of vino.

France is well-known for its vineyards, especially some regions just outside of Paris.

Order up a few of these French classics:

• Louis Jadot Beaujolais
• Grand Cru Château la Grangère Saint Emilion
• Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape
• Chateau St. Michelle Sauvignon Blanc
• Simonnet Febvre Chablis

Insulated Wine Tote

Honestly, I’ve already got this on my personal wish list. This adorable bag is perfect for wine fanatics who love a good picnic. 

The gift set comes with two napkins, a set of wine glasses, and a combination corkscrew.

To create the perfect gift bag, pair this Ascot wine tote with a bottle or two of the recommendations above.

Macaron Recipe Book

If your friend is an aspiring cook, or just a downright talented baker, they’ll love to learn how to create macarons at home. 

Both Laduree and Pierre Herme have recipe books that will give your friend all the secrets to creating the perfect French macaron. 

The best part is that this gift will benefit you in the long run since they’ll need someone to help them eat all their fresh creations!

A French Cookbook

If they are less of a pastry chef, and more of an overall one, then they’ll love a French cookbook. 

You’ve got two options here, go classic or modern.

The classic cookbook, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, written by Julia Child is a must for any chefs. Though, because it’s basically the bible of French cooking, they may already own it.

The more modern Tasting Paris Cookbook, by award-winning food blogger Clotilde Dusoulier, is the perfect option for the at home chef who has all the classic cookbooks in their library. 

Either way, you’ll hopefully be invited to some pretty epic French themed dinner parties after this gift!

Harney & Sons Paris Tea

Harney & Sons makes a special black tea blend with notes of vanilla and caramel that’s made as an homage to the tea shops of Paris.

Your friend will be transported to the streets of “The City of Lights” while they’re sipping this custom blend.

Paris Themed Mug

Whether you’re a coffee or tea drinker, everyone could use a few extra mugs in their kitchen.

This Paris themed Cypress Home Store mug is the ideal little something to give the caffeine lover in your life!

Bonus points if you give it along with the Harry & Sons Paris tea!

Paris Cocktails Book

If your friend is a mixologist or simply loves a good cocktail, then they need this collection of over 100 cocktails inspired by Paris.

They sourced the recipes from leading French mixologists and include signature drink recipes from some of the hottest bars in France.

I just got a set and have received so many compliments on them since sending them out to friends and family. 

Hand Painted Oil Painting

This painting reminds me so much of the one I used to have hanging in my UES studio. 

It was one of my favorite conversation pieces.

Staring at this beauty will make you feel you’re in a dream. It’s so surreal and charming, and the perfect accent piece to really tie a room together.

Another excellent Parisian themed throw is from Betsy Johnson. 

This one has a fun design and is made of a super soft fleece that’s super cozy to cuddle up with.

Speaking of dressing up, every little girl needs a few accessories. This Eiffel Tower necklace is an item that they can wear for years to come.

Little People, BIG DREAMS sells some of the most fashionable children’s books today—case in point, Coco Chanel’s life story for kids!

The book is recommended for preschool through age 2 and will teach kids early the power of dreaming big!

Madeline Book Set

Okay, so if the life story of Coco Chanel seems like a bit much, default to the classic tales of Madeline.

If you grew up without reading these books, here’s the deal. Madeline is a precocious young girl who lives at a French boarding school. She’s constantly adventurous and getting into trouble, yet somehow always saves the day.

These classic books have aged beautifully and are a lovely gift for any young woman.
