Flag of Kanbara Shizuoka 1960-2006 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the municipal flag of the former town of Kanbara in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, built around a single official emblem on a clean white field.

Visual Elements & Composition

White dominates the composition, filling roughly two-thirds of the field and giving the emblem room to breathe. At its centre sits the town's crest, drawn in flat vector shapes of green and red. Circles and semicircles form the emblem's structure, and the Japanese kanji 蒲 sits within it as the only written mark. Nothing competes with that central figure, so the eye settles on it immediately and stays there.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem was Kanbara's own symbol of local identity from 1960 until 31 March 2006, when the town was merged into the city of Shizuoka. The kanji 蒲 names the town itself, so the crest works as a compact statement of place. Its restrained, formal layout reflects the conventions of Japanese civic heraldry, where a simple device on a plain ground signals tradition and administrative authority. The design is a record of a municipal heritage that now exists only in the history of the region.

Why It Suits a Pint Glass

A pint glass presents its emblem on a tall, curving surface that wraps around the hand, so the crest is seen in a turning arc rather than flat on a page. The white field reads cleanly against whatever drink fills the glass, and the central emblem stays in view as the glass is lifted and set down. Pick it up for a toast, and the town's old identity comes along with the pour.

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.
