Flag of admiral of the Navy of Manchukuo (China) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design renders the naval rank flag of an admiral of the Navy of Manchukuo, the short-lived state that existed in northeastern China from 1932 to 1945.

Visual Elements & Composition

A marigold-yellow field fills most of the flag, so the eye settles on warm gold before anything else. Set into the fly are three red stylized plum blossoms, each with five petals, placed in a row. The hoist-side canton carries horizontal bands of red, blue, white and black, a compact block of colour that anchors the composition. The whole piece is drawn in flat vector style, with crisp edges and no shading, which suits the heraldic clarity of the original.

Meaning & Symbolism

The golden field stands for the national background of Manchukuo, while the flowers mark rank. From 1932 to 1935, three white five-pointed stars held that job; after October 1935 the state replaced them with the red plum blossoms, which remained the official admiral's insignia until 1945. That change makes this version a precise snapshot of the later years. The flag shows how Manchukuo's naval heraldry followed the conventions of other navies while building in its own national colours and motifs, a record of military administration during a contested chapter of twentieth-century Chinese history.

Rank Read Up Close

A shot glass is small and held close, so the three blossoms are read at arm's length, one by one, the way a collector studies a badge. The gold field fills the glass with warmth, and the canton sits at eye level as the drink is raised. It makes a thoughtful, slightly cheeky gift for anyone who enjoys a bit of history with their nightcap.

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.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. 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.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
