Flag of Iitaka Mie 1966-2005 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the flag of Iitaka, a town in Mie Prefecture, Japan, that flew from 1966 until 2005.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is built from just two colours: a bright green and a clean white. White covers most of the field, so the green emblem stands out sharply against it. The image is flat vector work with no shading or texture, and the composition centres on the town's emblem, a stylised graphic built from simple geometry. Circles and triangles do the structural work, and a letter-like form sits within the arrangement. Nothing is decorative for its own sake, so every shape reads as deliberate.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem was a visual shorthand for a community's identity. Iitaka adopted the flag on August 1, 1966, and it represented the town in local governance until January 1, 2005, when Iitaka merged into the city of Matsusaka and the flag was retired. The design follows the formal tradition of Japanese municipal heraldry, where a single clear mark stands in for an entire local authority. Today it works as a record of the Mie region's administrative history, preserving the identity of a town during its own era.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A flag is meant to be seen from a distance, but this emblem is designed to be read at close range. Once it wraps a tall, curved glass, the green mark and white field turn with every sip and pour, so the emblem becomes part of the drinking ritual. Pick it up for a slow toast to a town that is no longer on the map, and you have a conversation starter that is far more interesting than the usual souvenir.

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.
