1930s High Life, 67 Floors Up.

It was the most fantastic dining room anyone had ever seen.  The private, men-only Cloud Club opened in 1930 on the 66th, 67th, and 68th floors at the top of the Chrysler Building on 42nd Street in Manhattan.

The Cloud Club seemed “to its early members to be an Art Deco Shangri-La, according to The New York Times.  While Prohibition was still in effect, the Cloud Club offered private cabinets for executives who needed a place to store their liquor.  And for the city’s executives who took their power lunches seriously, cocktails were served in sleek, lustrous glasses, with a pattern designed to mimic the geometric ornamentation and overall elegance of the Chrysler Building's design

Epitomizing the bold, futuristic vision of its era, these glasses add sparkling presentation to contemporary cocktail service. Your friends will beg to know where you got them.
