A rounded shield with a point at its foot is the only graphic element, bordered by a double line. “BR” sits above “437”, both in clean black type that reads left to right across the centre. The composition is a single shield on an open field, with no texture or secondary imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe “BR” code belongs to Brazil’s federal highway system, a national network that connects states, regional economies and border crossings. The number 437 identifies this road within it, and the “jct” notation flags a point where the road meets another route or an access road. The shield format dates from the modern signage standard that Brazil uses on its federal routes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSized for a Single Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug gets lifted and set down many times through a morning, and the shield’s bold outline is what the eye finds first each time. The double border follows the curve of the ceramic without breaking, and the numerals remain in view as the cup is turned on the hand. It is a plain design that gains from being seen in passing, which is exactly how a road sign is meant to be seen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53148622422296,"sku":"GMY-MUG-BR437-11OZ-1FS7L","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53148622455064,"sku":"GMY-MUG-BR437-15OZ-1FS7L","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/br-437-jct-brazil-road-sign-white-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-BR437-11OZ-1FS7L-front.webp?v=1793835725","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/br-437-jct-brazil-road-sign-white-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
