A rounded rectangle outline sits inside a rectangular border, creating a plate-within-a-frame structure that reads at once as signage. The characters X987 are set in bold sans-serif capitals, centred and spaced for clarity, so the code is the only thing demanding attention. Nothing decorative competes with it; the restraint is the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoute numbers are how travellers find their way, so a single alphanumeric designation carries the whole idea: a specific road, identified precisely within a regional network. The design draws on map-making and transit signage, where a short code stands in for a long journey. It is a minimalist tribute to the infrastructure that connects places within China, and to the quiet work of naming a road so that someone can follow it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for the Morning Brew\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned in the hand as it is sipped, so the plate and its border travel around the curve of the cup, and each glance lands on the same bold X987 as you lift it. It is a design for slow mornings with a map in mind, and a cheeky nod to anyone who has ever followed a route number to the end of the road.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53210377781528,"sku":"GMY-MUG-CHNCNT-11OZ-1FOE2-2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53210377814296,"sku":"GMY-MUG-CHNCNT-15OZ-90","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/china-county-road-x987-china-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-CHNCNT-11OZ-1FOE2-2-front.webp?v=1794259100","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/china-county-road-x987-china-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
