Flag of Horomui Hokkaido 1950-1964 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the municipal flag of Horomui, a area in Hokkaido, Japan, as it was used from 1950 to 1964, drawn as a single, confident emblem.

Visual Elements & Composition

The palette is strictly two-tone, with black covering roughly 40 percent of the field and white the rest. The flat vector treatment has no shading or gradients, so every edge is crisp. A central circular emblem dominates the composition, built around a five-pointed star and a cross-shaped figure. Nothing competes with it. The layout is formal and symmetrical, and the open white ground gives the black motif room to read clearly from any angle.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem is the heraldic mark of Horomui's local administration, and the star at its heart speaks to the civic identity that a small community claimed for itself in the postwar years. The flag was adopted in 1950 and carried until 1964, when Horomui became a district within the city of Iwamizawa. That short window gives the design its character: it is a record of a particular moment in Japanese municipal history, and of the regional pride that went with it. Mid-century municipal heraldry of this kind was built to be simple enough to stitch, print and recognise at a glance, and this version keeps that directness intact.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A glass like this is picked up, tipped and turned in the hand, so the emblem is seen in motion rather than from a fixed distance. The flag's clean white field and single central mark suit a surface that curves around the drink, letting the star and circle sit squarely in view as the glass is lifted. It is a fitting design for a vessel that does double duty, a piece of local history that is at home on the bar cart or the kitchen counter.

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.
