For 45 years, the White House Historical Association has crafted beautifully detailed Christmas ornaments that capture the history of the Executive Mansion and its residents. Continuing this cherished tradition, the Official 2025 White House Christmas Ornament honors the elegance and social diplomacy of White House State Dinners, where world leaders have gathered with presidents and first ladies for more than 150 years.
This brass ornament, finished with 24-karat gold, features the service plate from the Reagan State China Service on the front. The china was funded by a donation from the Knapp Foundation through the White House Historical Association and used by the Reagans and all presidents to follow for many State and Official Dinners, smaller private meals, and other White House events.
Central to the reverse of the ornament is the Clinton gold-rimmed service plate, distinguished by a gilded White House in the center. In 1999, in preparation for celebrating the two-hundredth anniversary of the White House, First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton accepted the offer of the White House Historical Association to fund the creation of a commemorative china service. The first service to be embellished with an image of the White House itself, the commemorative china that was first used for the gala White House dinner to celebrate the anniversary.
Both the Reagan and Clinton china services continue to be used for State and Official Dinners today.
The central Reagan and Clinton service plates on the Official 2025 White House Christmas Ornament are encircled by holly and snowflakes, evoking the traditions of White House holiday decor. A striking red and gold tasseled cord for hanging on a Christmas tree or ornament stand completes the piece.
Presented in a keepsake box, this collectible ornament is encased in a decorative and protective flocked form and includes an educational booklet detailing the history of White House china services and formal entertaining.
Whether you are a history enthusiast, a collector, or seeking a meaningful gift, this ornament is a timeless tribute to the traditions of the Executive Mansion. Own a piece of White House history today.
