Flag of Kotake Fukuoka (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the flag of Kotake, a town in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, as a single, confident image of municipal identity.

Visual Elements & Composition

Dark green dominates the design, a deep, saturated tone that carries the whole composition. The artwork is flat and vector-clean, with no shading or texture to distract from its outline. A stylised leaf sits at the centre within a circle, and the layout is symmetrical, so the eye settles naturally on the middle of the field. A single vertical line adds structure beside the leaf. Nothing is decorative for its own sake, and that restraint is what gives the piece its modern, formal character.

Meaning & Symbolism

Municipal flags in Japan work as compact emblems of a place, and this one distills Kotake into a leaf, a circle and a line. The leaf points to the natural landscape the town is known for, while the circle suggests unity and completeness within the community. The design follows the clean, geometric conventions of Japanese local heraldry, where a flag must be read at a glance. It is a faithful reproduction of the town's banner, celebrating a specific corner of Fukuoka rather than a generic idea of Japan.

Reading the Design Up Close

A shot glass is small and held close, so the flag fills the eye at exactly the distance where its clean lines are easiest to appreciate. The leaf and circle sit squarely on the glass, and the vertical line runs with the form of the vessel. Raise it for a toast and the design faces you directly, which suits a flat emblem better than any curved, wraparound scene would. It is a fitting way to keep a piece of Kotake's identity on a home bar, a travel shelf, or a collection of flags.

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.
