That is why we've put together some creative ideas for antique Christmas gifts that you won't find on any other website. Enjoy the antique Christmas gift ideas and a Merry Christmas to all.

Guillotine

During the French Revolution and under the reign of King Louie XVI, Dr Joseph Guillotine designed a contraption for beheading people in a more human manner. While it may cost a pretty penny to import this wonderful antique, your loved one will be the only one in the neighborhood with this fancy contraption. Nothing says Ring-a-ling-a-ling like a sweet guillotine.

For instance, the top portions of the web pages are devoted to delivering factual information about the famous scientists, while the bottom portions, or the "rumor has it" part is devoted to nothing more than bald face lies, misinformation, chicanery and tomfoolery.

Caveman

Now that a few cavemen have been found frozen in iceberg in the icy north tundra, its time to get some of these frozen antiques out of the hands of scientists and into your loved one's Christmas stockings. Cavemen are some of the oldest antiques known to man, so won't your antique-loving loved one just love an artifact from the Paleolithic era?

Chastity Belt

If you're the parent of a teenage daughter, then what better antique Christmas gift to give than an authentic chastity belt complete with lock and key? Not only is this an antique Christmas gift that will be cherished but it is very functional as well. Keep the lock in your safety deposit box where no one can get at it. This gift will most likely create quite a stir among your daughter's friends (and their parents) so buy a few extra to share. Remember a chastity belt is the gift that keeps on giving.

Trigger

While not technically and antique, Roy Rogers' valiant golden stallion Trigger was stuffed and mounted in 1965 by Bishoff's Taxidermy of California. Trigger was set into the rearing position and is available for viewing in the Roy Rogers Museum. Hey, you throw enough money at the museum and your loved one can be the new owner of Trigger, a memorable gift for sure.
