First Lady Melania Trump on Thursday unveiled the new-old look of the restored Bellange suite of the Blue Room in the White House.

The Bellange suite is a collection of furniture made for the White House by French master craftsman Pierre-Antoine Bellange in 1817. 

For over ten years, a team of curators has been working with experts to complete the restoration of the Blue Room. A committee approved the project to restore the suite to its original appearance, in the works since 2005.

“It is my honor to announce the completion of the first phase of this important and historic project,” Melania said in a statement.
