Flag of BSAC edit (South Africa) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the flag of the British South Africa Company, a banner built around the red, white and blue of the Union Jack with the company's badge set at its centre.

Visual Elements & Composition

Navy blue dominates the design, covering about a third of the field, with red and white sharing most of the rest. The Union Jack structure carries the whole composition: the diagonal saltire and the upright cross divide the flag into clear, bold fields. At the centre sits a circular roundel, its white ground framed by a red ring. Gold and black appear only in small amounts within the badge, so the eye goes straight to the emblem. The letters "B.S.A.C." sit beneath it in plain capitals.

Meaning & Symbolism

The badge carries the company's identity. A yellow lion holds an elephant's tusk, a reference to the ivory trade that drew the company into the region, and a red and yellow wreath at the base anchors the emblem. The British South Africa Company received its Royal Charter in 1889, and this banner flew over its administration until 1923. It was used in the territories north of the Limpopo River, including the lands that became Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). The flag is a document of late nineteenth-century imperial power, and the artwork reflects that era's heraldic style.

Where the Badge Meets the Glass

A pint glass turns the flag into something you hold and look at from every angle. As the drink goes down, the roundel stays at eye level, so the badge is always the first thing you see. Those navy and red bands wrap around the curved sides, where the lion and the letters catch the light as you turn the glass. It is a bold, slightly cheeky way to bring a piece of colonial heraldry to the table, and a good talking point for anyone who likes their history served with a drink.

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.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. 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.
