BR-550 jct (Brazil) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz

This design renders a Brazilian BR-550 junction sign as a flat, modern road marker, its black shield set crisply against a white field.

Visual Elements & Composition

White dominates the artwork, covering roughly four-fifths of the surface, with black taking the remaining fifth. The composition is built around a shield, rounded at the top and tapering to a downward point at the base, framed by a nested outline border that echoes the sign's own edge. The lettering is kept to the essentials: the letters BR stacked above the numerals 550, with the "Jct" designation completing the instruction. Nothing decorative competes with it. The flat vector treatment and stark two-tone palette give the piece the plain, utilitarian character of the signage it reproduces.

Meaning & Symbolism

The sign is an early-warning navigation marker. "Entroncamento," or junction, tells drivers that BR-550 is ahead and that they may join it, cross it, or follow signs toward regional destinations. BR denotes a Rodovia Federal, a highway maintained by Brazil's national government, and BR-550 runs mainly through Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo, linking interior cities to coastal and industrial regions. The design therefore stands for convergence: routes meeting, traffic being organised, and the standardised signage that keeps southeastern Brazil's highways orderly and safe. It is a modern expression of the country's road engineering, drawn from the signage the original sign system established.

On the Pint Glass

A pint glass is a tall, curved surface that wraps around the hand, so the shield runs vertically up the side and the border follows the glass as you lift it. The sign's downward point sits toward the base, where the eye lands first, and the white field keeps the mark legible from across the table. It is a design made for a drink held at eye level, a small road sign for those who like their journeys served cold.

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.
