I don't think every first lady chooses new ones.
Melania may think they have enough or the current ones are adequate.
Last time I saw anything about the WH china was Laura Bush. I think mooch showed her picks off too, but Cnn or one of them did a bit on Laura’s pick.
I thought every first lady gets to pick her choice of china?
I haven’t heard a peep about White House China.

Sounds like they’re using the china selected by the Reagan’s.
You’re right. Nancy Reagan raised the money for her china from the private sector... at least that’s how I remember it.
I think the Whitehouse “historian” or whoever it is that checks for the appropriateness and accuracy chooses several styles, and then the First Lady chooses one.
I don’t think the First Lady begins a search at random and chooses.
