Flag of Koganei Tokyo (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design turns the municipal emblem of Koganei, a city in Tokyo Prefecture, into a single bold image built from the Japanese character that opens the city's name.

Visual Elements & Composition

The artwork is a flat vector image in two colours, with white covering roughly three quarters of the field and red taking the rest. The composition is centred and minimalist. A circle and an oval set the structure, and a crescent ring frames the centre. Inside that frame, the kanji 小 (ko) is drawn with geometric strokes that curve and taper until the character reads as a cherry blossom. Pointed leaf motifs add a second note of nature, so the eye moves between the written form and the flower without ever settling on one.

Meaning & Symbolism

The character 小 is the first symbol in Koganei's name, so the emblem begins with the city's own identity. Pairing it with the cherry blossom, one of Japan's most traditional floral motifs, joins language and landscape in one mark. The municipal symbol was officially adopted on October 1, 1958, and it stands as a formal sign of regional heritage and civic pride. Japanese heraldry, or mon, has long worked this way: a simple, memorable form that carries a family, place or community in a few lines.

Designed for the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small, held close and tipped back in a single moment, so the emblem is seen from the inside of the hand as the glass lifts. The red and white sit at eye level, with the blossom-shaped character turning toward the drinker as the glass is raised. It is a considered piece of Japanese civic design, and a neat conversation starter for anyone who keeps a home bar or wants a souvenir with a story behind it.

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.
