Gifts from the Middle East - GWB Presidential Library and Museum

In the main hallway, they had an exhibit of gifts that were given to the Bushes from various countries. I found a few items in the "Middle East" gifts that I thought were particularly interesting.
Sculpture, Saudi Arabia - Golden desert scene with Bedouins, camels, and a tent given to Mrs. Laura Bush by King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, October 23, 2007
Jewelry Set, Saudi Arabia - Sapphire and diamond jewelry set presented to Mrs Laura Bush by King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, October 23, 2007


Sculpture, Israel: Sterling silver and gold representation of Jerusalem given to President Bush in December, 2001 by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon
