DH and I want to give a thank you/appreciation gift to 2 of his rebbiem who have helped him tremendously.

Any suggestions? Not money. not something for their wives (like serving dish) and not sefariim (b/c who knows what they have). Something simple that just says "I appreciate all that youve done for me even though you didn't have to"

Something chocolate that he can either eat himself or share. Who doesnt like chocolate? Or if you want to spend more, a gift card to a nice restaurant.

Would something beautiful and functional like soft leather gloves lined in cashmere or cashmere muffler be inappropriate? Little luxuries like this make every day feel special.

thanks for the suggestions.

I think dh would be uncomfortable giving his rebbie (who is much older than him) gloves, and to me a bottle of wine is something I would bring when being a guest on shabbos.

is there anything like bircas habayis but with the theme of appreciation or being a mentor (does that make any sense?!).
