About this design
China County Road X496
China County Road X496 (China) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
This design takes a single roadway identifier and sets it on a plain field, so the route number is the whole picture.
Visual Elements & Composition
The artwork is flat and modern, built from two colours: white fills most of the surface, and black carries the lettering and border. A rounded rectangle, with softened corners, frames the code X496 at the centre, like a route marker you would pass at the roadside. Nothing sits beside it. The layout is symmetrical and direct, so the eye lands on the numerals at once.
Meaning & Symbolism
A route marker exists to tell travellers where they are and which road they are on. Here the designation China County Road X496 names a specific regional route, and the artwork holds to that job. Its mood is neutral and informative, with the geography, travel and regional transit of the road standing behind the code. The design is a faithful reproduction of a modern road marker, and it honours the local identity that the number carries.
On the Mixing Glass
A mixing glass is a vessel that lives in the hand, lifted and tilted as a drink is stirred and poured. The design wraps around that curved, tapering body, so the rounded frame and the centred numerals turn as you turn the glass. It suits a friend who keeps a map of their favourite back roads, or anyone who measures a journey in junctions and mile markers. Give it to someone who knows the road, and every pour becomes a small nod to where they have been.

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.
