About this design
Alabama 149
Alabama 149 (Alabama) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
A minimal route marker in two tones, showing the number 149 inside a state-shaped shield, the same form drivers follow across Alabama.
Visual Elements & Composition
Black and white are the only colours, with black covering the larger part of the layout. The state outline shield sits within a rounded rectangular frame, and the numerals 1, 4 and 9 are placed in its centre. The flat vector treatment is clean and uniform, leaving the route number as the clear focal point.
Meaning & Symbolism
State Route 149 is a state-maintained highway that runs through the Birmingham metropolitan area, linking suburbs such as Mountain Brook and Homewood and passing near downtown Birmingham. The shield is a navigational device: it tells a motorist which route they are travelling and keeps them oriented through the region. It celebrates the everyday infrastructure of the road network, not a monument, and the number is the only message it carries.
Where a Route Marker Meets the Glass
A pint glass has a tall, curved surface, so the shield wraps around the body and the number reads as the glass turns in your hand. A design built for passing traffic suits a vessel that spends its time on the move between the kitchen, the table and the porch.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.
These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.
Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.
- Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
- Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
- Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
- Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
- Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.
Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.
- Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
- Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
- Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.
Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.
These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.
Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
