Flag of Kagoshima Prefecture symbol (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design takes the emblem of Kagoshima Prefecture in southern Japan and reduces its landscape to three shapes: a black coastline, a white ground, and a single red disc.

Visual Elements & Composition

The field is white, and the black silhouette of the Satsuma and Ōsumi Peninsulas fills most of it, reaching across the image in a bold, flat outline. The coastline carries a distinct notch where Shibushi Bay cuts inland, and that single indentation is what makes the shape instantly recognisable. Centred on the land sits a red circle, the only warm colour in the composition, and it draws the eye straight to the middle. There is no text or numerals, only geometry, so the emblem reads clearly from across a room.

Meaning & Symbolism

The black landmass stands for the region's own peninsulas, and the red circle represents Sakurajima, the active volcano that rises from Kagoshima Bay and defines the prefecture's skyline. The symbol was formally adopted on March 10, 1967, and it was designed to express the passion, harmony and unity of the people who live there, as well as the prefecture's continued growth. Its bold, geometric simplicity is what gives the region a clear and powerful visual identity.

Shaped for the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is a tall, slim vessel that is lifted and tilted in the hand, so the emblem wraps a curved surface rather than sitting on a flat face. The narrow proportions suit a bold, uncluttered image: the peninsulas stretch around the glass as it turns, and the red circle comes into view with each pour. Hold it up to the light and the white field keeps the outline crisp, which is exactly what a symbol designed for clarity needs.

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.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
