This hurricane glass was used at the Outrigger Hotel in Waikiki. The company was founded by Roy and Estelle Kelley who opened their first hotel in 1947. The company's first hotel to carry the Outrigger name was the Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach, which opened in 1967. In 1986, Outrigger became the largest hotel chain in Hawaii when its room count pushed over 7,000. In 1999, Outrigger created a new brand, Ohana Hotels and Resorts, to better market its more moderately priced three-star properties, while keeping the Outrigger brand for its higher-end four-star and luxury properties.
