Origin
At about 9:42 AM on January 20th, 2017, Donald Trump arrived at The White House to be sworn in as President of the United States. Upon arrival, Melania Trump gifted Michelle Obama with a Tiffany's box. Michelle seemed confused with what to do with it for a moment, and briefly glimpsed at a nearby camera.
