Flag of Hirakata Osaka (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

An indigo field carries a white circle with a single kanji character at its centre, finished in flat vector style.

Visual Elements & Composition

Indigo covers nearly the whole field, with white as the main contrast and a touch of crimson at the edges. A circle sits at the centre and holds the kanji 立, while a stylised plant bud and a crescent curve around it. The forms are simple and balanced, with no shading, so the emblem's outline stays sharp. The character is the only lettering in the design.

Meaning & Symbolism

This is the flag of Hirakata, a city in Osaka Prefecture in the Kansai region of Japan. As the city's official municipal symbol, it stands for local government, community identity and the civic life of Hirakata. The kanji and the bud motif are set inside the circle as a compact seal, a common approach in Japanese municipal emblems.

On the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the kanji and bud are read at arm's length, much as a crest is read on a flag at a civic event. The deep indigo gives the white circle a strong edge against the clear glass, and the compact emblem suits a piece picked up and admired one piece at a time.

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.
