Arthur's Club was founded in 1811. It took its name from Arthur's Chocolate House founded by Robert Arthur (d.1761), whose father John had been assistant to Francis White, the founder of White's Club. The club house at 69 St. James's Street, now the Carlton Club, was designed by Thomas Hopper and built between 1826 and 1827. The original subscription was high, being 20 guineas, and members were for the most part country gentlemen. On the closure of the club in 1940 the chattels, including the silver, were mainly purchased by the Carlton Club, although certain items were sold to members as keepsakes.
