White House Presidential Desk Based on Original Used by JFK and All Other Presidents Since Hayes

White House Oval Office ”Resolute” desk replica, handcrafted from dark red Swietana mahogany. Originally crafted from the salvaged oak timbers of a sunken British explorer’s ship (the H.M.S. Resolute), the original White House desk was presented as a gift to U.S. President Rutherford B. Hayes from Queen Victoria of England in 1880. The desk remained in the President’s second floor White House study for many years, even following the completion of the West Wing. After President Franklin D. Roosevelt took office, he requested that the rear kneehole be fitted with a panel that would conceal his leg braces. Unfortunately, Roosevelt died shortly before the panel could be installed in 1945. Following the 1948-1952 renovation of the Truman White House, the desk appeared in the ground floor broadcast room of the White House, from which President Dwight D. Eisenhower made numerous radio and television broadcasts. When President John F. Kennedy took office, the Resolute desk was installed in the Oval Office for the first time, thanks to the efforts of First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. The desk became famously featured in a whimsical photograph of President John F. Kennedy at work while son John Jr. peeked out from behind the kneehole panel. After President Lyndon B. Johnson selected another desk for his office, the Resolute desk was donated to a Kennedy Library traveling exhibition in the mid-1960’s. Following the tour, the desk was forwarded to the Smithsonian for exhibition, where it remained until January 1977, when President Jimmy Carter requested the return of the desk to the Oval Office. In 1989, President George H. Bush utilized the desk for five months before having it moved to his residence office in exchange for a favored desk originating from his Vice Presidential West Wing office. The Resolute was returned to the Oval Office in 1993 after President Bill Clinton took office. It has remained an Oval Office fixture ever since. This impressive piece is a stunning replica of the original 1880 design, with intricate carvings including one of the Great Seal. Another replica was used in the ”National Treasure” movie franchise, the plot of which centered around the Resolute desk. Desk features a maroon tooled leather top, pedestal legs with file drawers and a lockable cupboard door with letter drawer. Measures 76” long x 48” wide x 30” high. Matching chair is also available, but not included in this lot. In new, fine condition. Sold for $6,250.
