These gifts do not remain private (which is not the same as making it public). Any gift is most likely stored and registered into one of the two Foundations below. Stichting Officiële Geschenken van het Huis Oranje-Nassau / Foundation Official Gifts of the House Orange-Nassau (2007) Purpose: to collect, to save and to manage properties which were offered to Her Majesty Queen Wilhelmina or are offered to a (spouse of a) descendant. The Foundation can not sell or estrange the properties entrusted to it. Board of the Foundation: His Royal Highness The Prince of Orange, Mr J.M. Boll, Mrs A.C. van Es. Reg.nr 27309679 Stichting Koninklijke Geschenken / Foundation Royal Gifts (2007) Purpose: to collect, to save and to manage properties which were offered to the bearer of the Crown in the framework of his function as head of state of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, given during State Visits, official visits or other events. The Foundation can not sell or estrange the properties entrusted to it. Managher of the foundation is the bearer of the Crown. Reg.nr. 27309706
