The pentagon carries a thick outer border and an inner line, so the shield has depth without any shading. The numerals sit squarely in the centre and dominate the layout. The result is a monochrome, typographic piece where the shape and the number do all the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePentagonal shields are how Brazilian state highways mark themselves, and the number on the shield is the thread a traveller follows from one junction to the next. This piece names route 373, a road within the Brazilian state network. It treats the marker as a small monument to the long roads that connect regions, the kind of identifier most people pass without a second look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTurned in the Hand\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a mug is turned in the hand, the pentagon travels around the body as the cup moves, so the numerals appear and disappear with each turn. The C-handle sits on the opposite side, keeping the shield clear while you lift the mug. It works on a desk, a kitchen shelf or a road-trip table, wherever a number on the move has a story attached.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53148245131544,"sku":"GMY-MUG-BRSSTD-11OZ-1FQDG","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53148245164312,"sku":"GMY-MUG-BRSSTD-15OZ-1FQDG","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/brasil-estado-373-jct-brazil-road-sign-white-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-BRSSTD-11OZ-1FQDG-front.webp?v=1793829620","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/brasil-estado-373-jct-brazil-road-sign-white-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
