Flag of Katsuren Okinawa 1978-2005 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the municipal flag of Katsuren, a village in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, in a clean blue and white emblem that carries a whole chapter of local history.

Visual Elements & Composition

Blue dominates the design, covering most of the field, with white reserved for the emblem itself. The flat vector style keeps everything crisp and graphic. At its centre sits a winged circular motif, with a triangle cutting through the composition and the wings opening outward on either side. Nothing is decorative for its own sake. Each shape is set with the restraint of a good modern logo, so the eye lands on the symbol immediately.

Meaning & Symbolism

The flag was adopted on August 14, 1978, and represented Katsuren Village and later Katsuren Town as a primary marker of community identity. It stayed in use until April 1, 2005, when Katsuren merged with Gushikawa City, Ishikawa City and Yonashiro Town to form Uruma City. From that date the emblem moved from active municipal flag to historical marker of the former municipality's civic identity. It is a small piece of Japanese administrative history, preserved in a single symbol.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is a tall, straight vessel that gets lifted, tilted and turned in the hand, so the emblem rotates with every pour. Printed on the outside, the blue field catches the light as the glass moves, and the white wings stay in view from the bar top to the table. It suits a quiet night in as well as a shared round, and the design gives the glass a story to tell over the first drink and the last.

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.
