Flag of Katsumoto Nagasaki 1973-2004 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design renders the municipal emblem of the former town of Katsumoto, Nagasaki, in its traditional heraldic format, a crisp record of a town that stood on its own for three decades.

Visual Elements & Composition

Blue dominates the artwork, covering roughly three quarters of the field, with white providing the emblem's contrast. The image is built from flat vector shapes with no shading or texture, so every edge reads cleanly. A circle anchors the composition, and a star sits within its geometry, giving the layout the balanced, symmetrical order typical of civic heraldry. Nothing is decorative for its own sake; each shape carries its place in the arrangement.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem was adopted on 20 September 1973 and used until the municipal merger that formed the present city of Iki, so it captures a specific chapter of regional identity. Its restraint reflects the formal conventions of Japanese municipal heraldry, where a few clear symbols stand in for a community's history and civic pride. Read today, the flag is a documentary image of Katsumoto's independent years within Nagasaki Prefecture, preserved in the colours specified for that era.

Made for the Mixing Glass in Hand

A mixing glass is a tall, narrowing vessel that sits in the palm and turns as it is used, so the emblem wraps a curved surface that is seen from every side. The bold blue and white read clearly as the glass catches the light, and the circular centrepiece lines up naturally with the rim. It is a considered keepsake for anyone who values local history, and a sharp conversation starter for the next gathering around the bar cart.

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.
