The White House accepted 83 gifts from Saudi Arabia during a presidential visit by Donald Trump earlier this year, including cheetah and tiger fur-lined robes, a silver dagger in a mother-of-pearl sheath and several swords.

Trump was also gifted an artwork of himself during the visit, which took place in May this year and was his first trip abroad as president.

Previous US presidents have tended to visit neighbouring countries such as Mexico or Canada on their first foreign visits.

During the trip the US said it signed deals worth more than US$350 billion ($483 billion) with the Saudis, including a US$110 million ($152 million) weapons deal that the White House heralded as historic in size.

The list of items was obtained via a Freedom of Information request and published by magazine The Daily Beast on Tuesday.

"Trump's decision to visit Saudi first clearly signaled his top prioritization of America's most profitable relationship with its number one weapons client in the world," Sarah Leah Whitson, executive director of Human Rights Watch's Middle East and North Africa Division, told the Daily Beast.

Among the more humble gifts the White House received during the visit were two pairs of leather sandals and two large wool blankets.
