The story of the name and origin

The abbreviation HMS stands for Her Majesty's Ship (in the time of the King it would have been His Majesty's Ship) and is the traditional designation for ships of the British Royal Navy . HMS Resolute was a 19th-century British research ship that participated in Arctic expeditions. She was abandoned after becoming trapped in ice, but was later found by Americans, repaired, and given back to Queen Victoria as a gesture of friendship.

A legacy that has endured for generations

When the ship was finally decommissioned, Queen Victoria had a desk made from its wood, which she subsequently gifted to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880. Today, the "Resolute Desk" is one of the most recognizable symbols of the Oval Office and has been used by almost all American presidents.
