Back then they booked it with almost $200,000 worth of gifts that should have remained at the White House. The gifts included artwork, flatware, furniture, china and rugs.
Spotted in front of the Obama’s new home was a truck from Cadogan Tate, a company that specializes in “fine art and house removals.” It was unloading boxes of fine art.
The company has two U.S. offices in New York and Los Angeles. Its website states “Cadogan Tate moves and stores personal possessions, commercial assets, valuable works of art and priceless furnishings for individuals, companies, auction houses, galleries, collectors and interior designers the world over.”
