This photograph of the China Room was taken in 1918 during the Woodrow Wilson administration. The room, located on the Ground Floor of the Executive Mansion, is home to the state service china, glassware, and silverware picked and used by the presidents. First Lady Edith Bolling Galt Wilson was the first to display the china in this room in 1917 and today every president is represented in the room, though not all designed and purchased a state service during their administrations. Above the shelving is engraved, "CHINA USED BY THE PRESIDENTS".
