Set of Four Crystal Manhattan Glasses with Platinum-Banded Rims and Feet (LEO Design)

 

 Maybe it's much too early in the game,
Ah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same,
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?
.
Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations you received.
.
Ah, but in case I stand a little chance,
Here comes the jackpot question in advance,
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

 

One of my favorite Christmastime songs isn't a Christmas song at all.  It's Ella Fitzgerald's recording of Frank Loesser's masterpiece, "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?"  (click here)  Written in 1947, it originally was never intended to be a "December song," but the bittersweet melancholy lends itself so beautifully to the longing and anticipation which accompanies the ever-darkening season.

These four Mid-Century Modern Manhattan cocktail glasses could serve-up a sophisticated mixed drink or splash of Champagne as the bells toll.  They are the classic 1950's cocktail glass—and finished with platinum at the rims and around the foot.  Click on the photo above to learn more about them.
