HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEORGE, LOVE UNCLE SAM

In a gesture of quiet elegance and thoughtful diplomacy, President and Mrs. Obama gifted newborn Prince George a bespoke rocking horse and an alpaca wool baby blanket to mark his birth. The blanket, crafted by Alicia Adams Alpaca in the Hudson Valley, was woven from the finest alpaca wool, sourced from the family’s herd of 200 Suri alpacas. Personalized with a message stitched directly into the fabric, it reflects the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship, heritage and sustainable luxury.

Known for their naturally soft and hypoallergenic qualities, Alicia Adams Alpaca textiles offer a tactile warmth that feels as noble as it is nurturing. Presented alongside treasured royal heirlooms at the Royal Childhood exhibition in Buckingham Palace, the blanket represents a quiet celebration of refinement, legacy and transatlantic friendship. In every stitch lies a sense of grace and permanence. A gift not just for a prince, but for the art of living beautifully.
