Gifts for Jane Austen fans
A gift guide · updated November 2026 · Leer en español
Jane Austen fans are easy to spot and hard to buy for: they already own the novels, often in three editions. So this list skips the books themselves and goes for things that show you know them well. Most of it is about Pride and Prejudice, because that is the one everybody quotes.
We design everything here ourselves. Prices are in US dollars, and each product page tells you whether it ships to your country and what it costs.
To wear and to use every day

Who to give what
Someone who rereads Pride and Prejudice every year
The annotated sweatshirt. They will get every note in the margin. If you want to know what the notes are about, we wrote up what the first line really means.
A friend who has read all six novels
The Jane Austen Puzzle Book. The quiz and “Who said it?” pages are where a real fan shows off, and there is a chapter for each novel, not just the famous one.
A colleague, a Secret Santa or a teacher
The mug. It is under $25 and nobody needs to know their size.
Someone who relaxes with a pencil in hand
Color the Classics or the Commonplace Book, depending on whether they draw or write.
Someone who has never read Austen
Give them the novel and a reason to finish it. Our free 2027 reading challenge has a prompt for “a classic you pretended to have read”, and Pride and Prejudice fits it perfectly.
Ordering for Christmas
Everything is made after you order. The mug and sweatshirt are printed in the US: order by December 8 for the US and by December 1 for other countries. The books are printed by Lulu and take 10 to 20 days, so order them by December 1 wherever you are. Each product page shows the estimate for your country, and there is more on the shipping & returns page.
