About this design
China County Road X999
China County Road X999 (China) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design is a road sign in miniature: the single identifier X999, set on a plate and built for the route it names, China County Road X999.
Visual Elements & Composition
Black and white do all the work. A rounded-rectangle outline frames the plate, and inside it a bold black block letter X sits beside three black numeral 9s. The white field is left open around the characters, so the eye moves from the letter to the numerals in turn. Flat vector shapes with no shading or ornament keep the layout direct, and the plate reads as a rectangular sign rather than a picture of one.
Meaning & Symbolism
A road designation is a small piece of civic mapping. Its letters and numerals tell drivers, dispatchers and cartographers exactly which route they are on, and this artwork isolates that identifier from everything around it. The themes are geography, infrastructure and travel: a route with its own code, tied to the county it crosses. The minimal treatment borrows the language of vehicle registration plates and road signage, both built to be read quickly and without fuss.
On the Shot Glass
A shot glass is small enough to hold in one hand and raise close to the face, so this sign is read at arm's length and then at eye level. Tip it back and the X999 is the last thing you see before the toast. It suits anyone with a link to China County Road X999, or a friend who has spent too long chasing directions down a country road and deserves a drink for it.

- When you order it
Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.
These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.
They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.
- Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
- Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
- Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
- Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
- Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.
Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.
- Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
- Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
- Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.
Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.
Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.
When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.
