Flag of Kakuda Miyagi (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A flat, two-colour rendering of the municipal flag of Kakuda, a city in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, set in olive green and white.

Visual Elements & Composition

Olive green covers roughly two-thirds of the design, with white filling the rest, so the palette feels calm and restrained. The artwork is built from simple flat vector shapes: a central circle, triangular forms, and stylised leaves arranged around a mon, the crest-like emblem that anchors the composition. Nothing competes with the emblem. The design relies on shape alone rather than lettering, so the eye goes straight to the symbol.

Meaning & Symbolism

A municipal flag works as a compact statement of local identity. Here the emblem stands for Kakuda itself and for the civic heritage it carries for the people who live there. The circular mon and the leaf motifs reflect the Japanese habit of reducing a place to a single, memorable mark. Modern in era and formal in mood, the design belongs to a tradition of civic symbols meant to be recognised at a glance.

A Shot Glass for a Close Look

A shot glass is small and held close, so this flag is seen at arm's length, up near the eye rather than across a room. The composition suits that scale: one emblem, clean edges and a limited palette read clearly when the glass is raised. Pour a measure, turn it in the light, and the green and white carry the same quiet formality as the flag it reproduces. It suits a home bar, a conversation about Japanese civic design, or a reminder of a place with a story behind its banner.

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.
