Flag of Mineyama Kyoto 1956-2004 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the municipal emblem of Mineyama, a former town in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, set as a bold red mark on a clean white field.

Visual Elements & Composition

White dominates the design, covering roughly 85 percent of the surface, with red making up the remaining 15 percent. The emblem is a flat vector symbol with no shading or texture, so its outline reads at once. Curved lines and a single loop form the core of the mark, and an abstract horned shape sits alongside a taurus-like glyph. Nothing else competes for attention. The result is spare and modern in style, even though the emblem itself is historical.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem was adopted on March 24, 1956, when Mineyama was an independent town, and it served as the official municipal flag until 2004. In that year Mineyama merged with neighbouring municipalities to become the city of Kyōtango. The mark therefore stands for a specific stretch of local governance and civic identity, one that ended with the merger. Japanese municipal heraldry often draws on simple, memorable forms like these, and this emblem shows that tradition at a regional scale.

Designed for the Hand

A mixing glass is lifted, tilted and turned as it is used, so the emblem is never seen head-on for long. Each angle catches a different part of the red curves and the loop, which suits a design built on clean line. Serve a drink in it and the emblem comes straight to the table, a quiet bit of regional history with a cheeky twist for anyone who knows the story behind it.

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.
