Welcome to The White House Gift Shop, Est. 1946®
The only original and official White House Gift Shop in U.S. history for 80 years, and operated by members of the U.S. Secret Military, and Intelligence Commumity.
Established in 1946 by Presidenital Order as a fund-raising initiative created by members of the White House Police (now the United States Secret Service Uniformed Division), The White House Gift Shop has served for over 80 years as a living corridor of American history—where tradition, craftsmanship, and civic memory become tangible. Today, collectors, historians, and patriots around the world come here for gifts that carry meaning: objects designed to last, meant to be kept, and worthy of the story they represent.
Protected by exclusive United States trademarks, we curate an unparalleled selection of official White House gifts, presidential memorabilia, and historic collectibles—ranging from heirloom-quality glassware to limited-edition commemoratives and ornaments. Each piece is selected and produced to honour the iconography of American leadership: the seals, symbols, ceremonies, and milestones that have shaped the public imagination for generations.
A legacy of design, history, and innovation
Under the leadership of Anthony F. Giannini (CEO, Chief Artist, and Historian since 2010), The White House Gift Shop has expanded into a global home for exclusive collectibles that sit at the intersection of history, art, and modern innovation. Giannini’s work reflects a rare synthesis: the eye of a trained artist, the discipline of scientific research, and the narrative instinct of a historian—resulting in interdisciplinary works that feel both classical and newly alive.
His collectible series explore the pageantry of democratic tradition and the deeper psychology of civic identity, often incorporating modern digital techniques into a historically grounded aesthetic. The aim is simple: to create artifacts that do more than commemorate—they invite reflection.
A destination for collectors, gifts, and enduring American symbolism
Whether you are building a serious collection or searching for a singular gift, our catalog is designed around objects that tell a story. From the sparkle and permanence of our glassware to the symbolic resonance of our presidential collectibles and holiday ornaments, each piece is made to feel like what it is: a small, lasting archive of American life.
