These are the best gifts to receive based on how much they sell for and how useful they are to players.
The Feast Of The Winter Star is a yearly event in Stardew Valley that takes place on Winter 25 and includes a secret gift exchange. A week before the event, Lewis will send the player a letter informing them which villager they have been assigned to get a gift for. While at the event, players receive a random gift from any villager.
The selling price and usefulness of these gifts can vary dramatically. For example, the worst gift to receive is most definitely Clay, which can be gifted by Jas, Vincent, and Leo. Although a useful resource material for some crafting recipes, Clay sells for very little gold and is already easy to acquire throughout Stardew Valley. The following list categories the ten best gifts to receive based on how much they sell for and how useful they are to players. 10 Ancient Doll
Gifted By: Jas, Vincent, or Leo
Sell Price: 60g
An Ancient Doll is first and foremost an Artifact that can be donated to the Valley’s museum, but that is not its only use. Tossing an Ancient Doll into the lava pool at level 100 of the mines produces a secret item only acquired through this method.
Not only that but an Ancient Doll can be used in the Community Center’s remixed bundles to complete the Children’s Bundle. It is also one of Jas‘ loved gifts. 9 5 Magma Geodes
Gifted By: Clint
Sell Price: 750g
The highest-value item that can be inside a Magma Geode is Star Shards, which can be sold for 500g each. However, the chances of all five geodes containing Star Shards are very slim. In that case, there are many other useful materials that come from Magma Geodes.
For example, magma geodes can produce several items needed for crafting, such as the Dwarf Gadget and Fire Quartz. Fire Quartz can also be used in the Community Center Geologist’s bundle. Since the acquisition of these items is based on chance, Magma Geodes as a Winter Star gift are fairly low on this ranking, but their high selling price allows them to make the top ten. 8 25 Warp Totem: Beach
Gifted By: Willy
Sell Price: 500g
Warp Totems teleport the player to the location described in their titles. Warp Totem: Beach teleports players to – you guessed it – the Beach!
Being closer to Willy’s shop and, eventually, the boat to Ginger Island early in the morning can prove very beneficial throughout the game.
