This is one of the best sellers online and for good reason. This ticker display stops repeated phone checks on the crypto markets and gives the price of your favorite currency in a handy, clock-sized display.

The case comes in a number of designs and color choices, to match the décor of the room or office. It has easy WiFi and coin set up, that links to Coingecko.com that lists the current value of various cryptocurrencies. Each one is handmade and perfect for the father who fancies himself as a trader (or miner) in your life.

2. Bitcoin Wall Clock

This Bitcoin wall clock is an outstanding piece of design and a great choice for an artsy dad Father’s Day gift. Its black and white color scheme means it will fit in with most décor styles. In addition, the base color can be changed to a wood finish for anyone who prefers a more natural look.

The front is made from a clear, plexiglass crystal that is shatter-resistant. The ink print of the face ensures that colors and tones are bright and even.

3. Leather and Canvas Laptop Backpack

For the tech-savvy father on the move, what could be a better gift than a laptop bag? This one forgoes the traditional, utilitarian style with a sleek, back-to-school look. Its materials are thick, cowhide leather, and waxed canvas, making it water-resistant and durable.

It is also packed full of extra features. It has external pockets, rear zippers for your computer, and an internal sleeve. Neat external straps allow you to tether a loose sweater or jacket to save room inside.

4. Murano Glass Set

This specialist glass begins life on the island of Murano, on the borders of Venice, Italy. The special technique has roots in ancient Roman techniques, revived at the dawn of the first millennium. It involves a unique chemical process that produces vivid designs, making Murano one of the perfect Father’s Day gifts for artsy dads.

These unique glasses come in a set of nine. Authentically Italian, they are available in a range of colors. They can theme any kitchen, study, or bar area.

5. Cryptochips Set

This set of physical crypto coins is one of the best build qualities we could find on the market. They are forged from high-quality iron and finished with a thin copper layer. This gives them a lustrous finish along with a heavy weight.

Coins are then put through a diecasting process, and all six in the set represent one of the main cryptocurrencies. Each coin is 40mm wide and 3mm in depth. For a limited time, each comes with a free coin, though sets are only available in limited quantities.

6. Souvenir Bitcoin

If your Father is obsessed with crypto, then what better way to stoke her passion than with a souvenir Bitcoin? This two-sided, gold-plated coin features the famous Bitcoin logo and is adorned with futuristic line patterns.

The coin itself has a diameter of 40mm and a 3mm thickness. It is a silver dollar-sized coin and comes with a plastic casing to protect it. It will look great in a collectors cabinet or displayed in an office or study.

7. Mojave Quilt

These handmade quilts are excellent for the father who likes to cuddle up or take his home comforts into the great outdoors. It’s also an ideal artsy dad gift, as its design takes inspiration from the setting sun behind Joshua Tree. This gives a dark, night sky pattern filled with reds, oranges, pinks, and golds.

The quilt comes from a range of plush fabrics. Cotton Chambray, Kona, and batting, along with raw silk and unbleached muslin are included. It comes in a range of sizes, from a crib all the way up to king size.

8. Roll Up Pencil Case

What makes this gift is the attention to detail. Its handmade body contains antique steel buckles along with brass rivets. This gives it a steampunk, industrialized aesthetic.

It is available in a range of colors. A set of tool protectors can be purchased optionally.

9. Space Rocket Watch Display

Hand turned from English and European Oak, it is finished with a protective high gloss coat. The design can hold three or more watches depending upon their size.

Measuring 26cm in height and 12cm on the other axis, this small gift can help you start Father’s Day with a bang.

10. Build Your Own Drum Machine Kit
