This is the Vermeil Room. I like to call this room the "Fur may" Room, but the correct pronunciation is "vur-may." I heard the curator say that vermeil objects are silver pieces that have been dipped in gold. Wow! Maybe I can get a vermeil dog tag one day. Several portraits of First Ladies hang on the walls in this room.
