On February 23, 1961, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy launched the most celebrated redecoration of the White House in its history. Within a year, a committee was formed, a law passed, donations sought, and a museum-quality collection of the fine period furnishings that would belong to the nation was born. Today, Mrs. Kennedy's work continues through the White House Historical Association, the private nonprofit that she founded on November 3, 1961. The 60th Anniversary Collection celebrates our sixtieth anniversary with exquisitely made White House inspired gifts for your home.
