People frequently gift purses or wallets as a fashionable gesture. Yet, according to Vastu, you should never gift a purse or wallet to anyone. Doing so is thought to harm relationships and may negatively affect your financial well-being. Hence, you should refrain from gifting a purse or wallet, even unintentionally. (Local18)
Vastu also advises against gifting sharp objects under any circumstances. Items such as scissors, knives, or any other pointed tool are believed to disrupt relationships. Exchanging such objects may cause misunderstandings, leading even minor issues to escalate into conflict. For this reason, sharp objects should never be given as gifts. (Local18)
