Since it first opened, this landmark New York City property has undergone several renovations and changes of ownership. It was a part of the Kirkeby Hotel chain; and later, in the late 1950s and early 1960s, the hotel was part of the Sharp Ltd Hotels chain, owned and operated by Evelyn Sharp.

In 1979, it was purchased by Rene Hatt, a Swiss hotel owner, and he started a lengthy series of renovations, including the addition of a rooftop pool and fitness center. It was intended to be reopened as a Nova-Park Hotel, but that plan failed, and it reopened instead in 1987 as the Hotel Maxim's de Paris — a branch of the Paris restaurant Maxim's.

When that failed, the hotel was sold again and opened as The Peninsula Hotel in 1998, after $45 million in renovations.

The egg cup has a white body with green leaves. Intertwined GH. The compote also has a white body with green leaf design. Intertwined initials GH with gilt trim.
