Flag of Nishikatsura Yamanashi (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

A dark-blue municipal emblem on white reproduces the flag of Nishikatsura, a town in Yamanashi Prefecture in the Chubu region of Japan.

Visual Elements & Composition

Deep blue dominates the design and covers most of its surface, with white filling the remainder. The emblem is built from hexagons, triangles and interlocking geometric shapes that lock together with no ornament. The flat vector styling keeps every edge crisp, and the characters 西桂町 sit within the composition, naming the town in kanji. Each line does structural work, so the mark reads at a glance.

Meaning & Symbolism

Municipal flags in Japan, known as mon or symbol marks, represent the local government, the community and the regional heritage of a place. This one belongs to Nishikatsura and carries the town's identity in a single modern graphic. Its restrained geometry follows the tradition of Japanese local administration emblems, where a small mark must be instantly recognisable. The design sits within both vexillology and Japanese heraldry, and it is a contemporary emblem, shaped for clarity rather than ornament.

Reading the Emblem on the Mixing Glass

This mixing glass tapers toward its base, so it sits snugly in the hand and tilts toward the eye as you lift it. A flat emblem works well on a vessel like this, because the geometry stays legible from every side while the glass turns in your grip. The hexagons and triangles meet the curve of the glass in a way that suits a design built on clean lines. For someone with roots in Yamanashi, the emblem becomes a talking point with every pour, and for anyone curious about Japanese municipal symbols, it turns a familiar glass into a small lesson in local identity.

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.
