Flag of Nakagawa Tokushima 1968-2006 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the historical municipal flag of Nakagawa, a town in Tokushima Prefecture on Japan's Shikoku island, as it flew from 1968 until the town merged into Anan in 2006.

Visual Elements & Composition

Green covers most of the field, about 85 percent of the design, with white making up the rest. The flat vector rectangle is built around a single white emblem at its centre, so nothing competes for attention. The emblem is a stylised graphic in the manner of Japanese municipal heraldry, and it carries the characters 那賀川町, the town's name written in Japanese. The result is spare, orderly and easy to read at a glance.

Meaning & Symbolism

Municipal emblems in Japan typically draw on local geography or on a stylised form of the place name, and this one follows that tradition. The flag was officially adopted on 9 December 1968 and served as the town's primary symbol for almost four decades. Its formal, civic look is characteristic of mid-century Japanese administrative identity, and today it stands as a record of a town that no longer exists under its own name.

Life in the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is tall, narrow and curved, so the flag wraps around the vessel rather than sitting flat. As the glass is lifted to pour or stir, the white emblem turns toward the drinker, and the green field becomes the backdrop to every round. It is a gift with a bit of attitude: a conversation starter for anyone who appreciates flags, Japanese design or a well-made cocktail, and a quiet way of saying you noticed the small details.

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.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
