Pull Up a Chair at the Round Table

To drink from these glasses is to take a seat at one of New York’s most storied tables.

At the Algonquin Hotel in the 1930s, Dorothy Parker and her circle—writers, critics, actors, and razor-sharp conversationalists—gathered daily around a circular table to exchange wit, wordplay, and well-made cocktails. The Algonquin Round Table became legendary not for pretension, but for its brilliance, irreverence, and love of life’s pleasures.

This literary-inspired cocktail coupe captures that spirit. Standing 6 inches tall with a poised, wide-bowled silhouette, it recalls the elegant glassware used during the golden age of American cocktail culture—when drinks were balanced, conversation sparkled, and style was effortless.

Whether raised at a dinner party, cocktail soirée, or quiet evening at home, these glasses remind us that a cocktail is never just a drink. It is a social ritual—meant to be shared in good company, good humor, and a glass worthy of the moment.

Presented in a Gift Box Set of Two, the 1930 Literary Round Table Cocktail Coupes are designed for keeping or for giving—because wit, like a good cocktail, is best enjoyed with others.
