  Discreet gifts are unobtrusive expressions of thanks and appreciation, delivered by courier or placed anonymously and unnoticed on a work desk. They can also be special versions of everyday items, which could be presents from anyone at all; only the giver and recipient know their true significance. A selection of discreet gifts for her include useful and well-designed presents to suit all pockets and tastes.
  
  

A Luxurious Gift

• A quality writing instrument is a luxurious gift most women will appreciate. It is also a discreet gift, especially for the businesswoman, since she will often receive such gifts from her contacts. The Sheaffer Prelude Mini ballpoint pen is small enough to fit equally well into a small formal purse or the back pocket of her jeans. It is available in a variety of finishes. Features include a twist-action to raise the carbide tip for writing; it takes standard size refills and comes in an attractive gift box with protective pouch and a three-year warranty. Cost varies depending on the store selling it, but it runs for around $40 dollars, as of October 2010.

A Thoughtful Gift

• Women who enjoy surfing the net and answering their emails late at night can do so discreetly from the comfort of their beds, favorite easy chairs, or even sitting on the floor with a lap desk cooling and pad combination for notebooks. The white Comfort Lapdesk for Notebooks by Logitech has a special shielded design that draws the heat generated by a portable computer away from the body and an ergonomically correct riser to permit a comfortable viewing angle, to save stress on her neck and legs. As of October 2010, the lap desk costs $39.99 from Logitech.com and is compatible with PC and Mac notebooks with screen sizes of up to 17 inches. It comes with a three-year warranty and slides easily into a regular-sized carry-on bag.
