Students feel more confident when they’re wearing their favorite shirts to school.

Whiskey glasses make a great gift since they’re not as expected like mugs–though both are appreciated of course! If you have friends who love science, chemistry, and maybe a little bit of alcohol, they’ll be delighted to receive this glass. It shows the chemical composition of whiskey, and is a good conversation starter for those late-night drinks.

These coasters do not have to be used just in the laboratory; they also work as decoration to make the dining room more interesting.

I’m not gonna say what’s written on the mug, but anyone who sees the text will definitely know who’s a great scientist! Give this to your friend who needs a bit of encouragement doing their research. It’ll keep them company during those long hours of studying with coffee, may it be day or night.

People don’t usually get 24K gold as a gift, but when they do, it’s easily communicated how much the giver cares about them.

Women used to be underappreciated in science, and sadly they also went through a time where they were sparsely represented in their respective fields.

These pins are perfect for your awesome friends in science class!

“Never trust an atom.” Why? “Because they make up everything,” obviously! If you laughed at this, then your friends probably will too.

If you’ve seen geologists survey and identify rocks, you’d have an idea of how fun their fieldwork goes.

Help a friend drink in moderation by giving them a measurable wine glass! It’s funny but it’s convenient and precise that way.

Yet another mug for our friends who like to keep track of their caffeine intake! It’s a clear glass printed with the chemical formula of caffeine, and is a good addition to our fellow nerds’ mug collection. Don’t worry, it’s not as vulnerable to breakage like the beakers we have in school.

If you have children who have been dreaming to go on spelunking adventures to crystal caves, but do not meet the age restriction yet, you can get them a set of glowing crystals that look very magical at night.
