The Official White House Christmas Ornament is made in America, and a new design has been released annually since 1981. Proceeds further the Association's mission to promote a deeper understanding of the Executive Mansion — not just as the home of each president, but as a cornerstone of the American story. The Association's acquisitions, preservation, research, and education efforts continue through generous private donations and the sale of its published books, products, and the Official White House Christmas Ornament.

The Official 2025 White House Christmas Ornament is made of brass and finished with 24-karat gold, featuring the design of the red Reagan State China Service and the gold-rimmed Clinton State China Service, that was created to celebrate the two-hundredth anniversary of the White House. 

Every ornament comes packaged in a keepsake giftbox and includes an educational booklet with full color photos and informative descriptions of the history of White House State China Services and State Dinners. The Ornament retails for $24.95.

More about the Reagan and Clinton State China Services:

The Reagan State China Service 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 events. 

The Clinton State China Service is 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, the commemorative China was first used for the gala White House dinner to celebrate the anniversary.
