Flag of Hong Kong 1955-1959 (China) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A navy blue colonial flag from Hong Kong's British years, with the Union Jack in the canton and a harbour badge on the fly.

Visual Elements & Composition

Navy fills the rectangle, with the Union Jack in the top-left corner. On the right-hand side a circular badge frames a working harbour: a sailing ship and a junk on the water, a mountain rising behind, and two figures beside a stack of cargo crates. Sky blue, white, crimson and gold appear within the badge. The rendering is flat vector, and the badge carries all the detail.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Union Jack identifies the flag as part of the British colonial system, and the badge carries the territory's own identity as a port. The harbour scene, with its ships and cargo, reflects the commercial life that made Hong Kong important under British administration. This version was in use from 1955 until 1959, when the colonial badge was updated, and it marks a short, distinct chapter before the later 1959 to 1997 flag.

In the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the harbour badge comes into focus as the glass is raised. The clear glass shows the navy field and the ships against whatever is poured, and the solid base keeps the glass steady on the bar. It is a compact piece of harbour history, meant to be looked at up close.

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.
