China County Road X246
China County Road X246 (China) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
This design takes the designation of China County Road X246 and presents it as a route marker, leaving the identifier itself to carry the whole image.
Visual Elements & Composition
Black and white do all the work. Solid white fills most of the field, while black draws the rounded-rectangle border and the bold sans-serif characters X246 inside it. The outline is a flat, even stroke, and the letters and numerals sit centred, so the eye lands on the route number first. There is no imagery or ornament beyond the marker, which keeps the layout plain and direct.
Meaning & Symbolism
A road sign exists for wayfinding, and this design honours that purpose. The rounded plate and the alphanumeric code are the conventions drivers read at a glance to confirm their place on a network of routes. Here the marker is lifted off the roadside and made into a piece of graphic identity, so the designation becomes the subject. It speaks to geography, travel and the documentation of regional transit, reading as a map reference made visible.
Reading the Route in Your Hand
This is a mixing glass, tapered toward the base so it sits comfortably in the hand, and it is picked up and turned constantly. The rounded border of the marker follows the curve of the glass, and the number X246 comes into view as the glass is rotated, the way a route number appears as you round a bend. Every time it is lifted, the road is read again.
It makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who keeps a map in the glovebox, plans long drives, or simply likes their everyday objects to carry a little geography.

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.
