The Resolute Desk was a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1879.
The Resolute was for a time lost, encased in ice, though her crew survived by marching to safety across the ice to be saved by another expedition.
It was built from the wood of its namesake, the HMS Resolute.
It’s a very important symbol of the alliance of the United Kingdom and the United States.
