Default Resolute Desk from Oval Office
Basically, the desk that the President uses in the White House. VampCat came out with an excellent rendition of this, but it seems to be currently unavailable. As an alternative, I'd take any similarly hefty and antique-looking desks. The one in the Oval Office, recycled from wood off an old British warship (so the story goes I believe) is just one of the many desks the occupants of 1600 Pennsylvania have used through the years. It really ought to be 3 tiles wide, so that the chair can be centered in front of the window with the flags on either side. SO, if anyone has a line on something useful in this regard, PLEASE let me know.
Another item I'm on the hunt for are the abovementioned flags. Lots of "proudly waving" flags out there, but I'd really like one that could be at rest, as you'd find it in schools, govt. buildings, etc. At present, I'm making do with the ones that jut out from walls, even though they look a bit like shower curtains (apologies to the creator). New Hampshire will have to substitute for the Prez. flag I'm afraid.

@chitownriverscum, not sure if this is official enough for you, but I do like and use the 4t2 Executron Executive Desk from Deeleesstuff:

I think this is the original post here, with some other desks:

And some other items in the set:

I think there's another simmer who converted this set as well, in case you want to compare recolors, functionality, etc. (Yes, Delonariel: https://delonariel.livejournal.com/14382.html).

Anyway, for flags, my favorite is from Nanashi's Town Hall Set (I really, really love this set): https://nanashi.sims2.net/?p=311
Nanashi's site seems to go down every now and then so I'll post a preview picture of the set and link to the page on Wayback Machine:

ETA:
Also there's some great military flags in Victoria Sims' 4t2 GP07 Military Deco Set: https://victoriasims.tumblr.com/pos...e-the-items-are
