Alaska - The Gold & Coal Fields (1898) Pint Glass - Design

Raise a toast to history with this striking pint glass, featuring a meticulously reproduced design of the 1898 "Gold and Coal Fields of Alaska" map. The artwork transports you back to the height of the Klondike Gold Rush, capturing the spirit of adventure and the allure of untold riches.

A Cartographic Tapestry

The design faithfully replicates the original USGS map, a complex and fascinating document from a pivotal moment in Alaskan history. Lush detail shows the vast territory of Alaska and parts of what is now Yukon, rich with hand-drawn cartography, trails, and rivers that define the wild landscape.

Visual Storytelling

The map's design cleverly conveys meaning by highlighting key elements: Color-coded sections mark the known gold and coal fields, a symbolic representation of the wealth that drew prospectors and settlers. The intricate network of trails, steamer routes, and rivers showcase the pathways to opportunity, illustrating the means of transportation.

Symbolism of Discovery

The presence of inset maps representing the "Klondike Gold Region" reinforces the connection between Alaska and the gold rush era. The map’s cartographic style, the hand-drawn hachures, and the detailed labels are typical of resource-oriented maps, reminding us of the era's focus on land exploitation.

This pint glass encapsulates the era's ambition and exploration, serving as a reminder of the historical significance and cartographic artistry found in the original Alaskan Gold and Coal Fields Map.

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.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. 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.
