Saudi Arabia and China were among the most generous in gifting to the president.
Donald Trump and his family received more than $100,000 in lavish gifts from foreign leaders during the president’s first year in the White House, with Saudi Arabia and China being among the most generous in their giving.
Some of the most expensive gifts included a porcelain dinnerware set with plates imprinted with the pink house at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, worth $16,250, and a $14,400 ornate calligraphy display and presentation box presented by China’s President Xi Jinping. Saudi Arabia’s King Salman also presented Trump with a $6,400 ruby and emerald pendant necklace.
All the gifts given to Trump and his family members were turned over to the National Archives as is normal practice. Back in September 2017, The Daily Beast reported that Saudi Arabia had given Trump 83 lavish gifts during his first international visit to the kingdom in May of that year.
