Flag of North Korea 1948-1992 3-2 alternative colours tone version (Korea) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the national flag of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea as it stood from 1948 to 1992, rendered here in an alternative set of red and blue tones.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is built from three horizontal bands of navy blue, red and white, with the navy blue taking the largest share of the field. Red runs through the centre as a broad band, framing a white circular badge set toward the hoist side. Inside that badge sits a single red five-pointed star. The flat vector treatment keeps every edge crisp, so the bands and badge read clearly even at the small scale of a shot glass.

Meaning & Symbolism

Each colour carries a defined meaning. Red stands for revolutionary spirit, the blood of patriots and socialist ideology. White signifies purity and the mono-ethnic nature of the Korean people, while blue denotes sovereignty, peace and the seas surrounding the peninsula. The red star is an international symbol of communism and the lofty spirit of the Korean people. This version captures the pre-standardisation period: the flag was officially adopted on 8 September 1948 and was updated in October 1992, and the earlier form shown here has a smaller star and white disc than the current one.

Built for the Hand and the Toast

A shot glass is small enough to hold close and turn between the fingers, so the badge and star sit right in the line of sight as the glass is lifted. The three bands wrap around the curve of the glass, and the compact composition suits a glass that is seen up close rather than from across a room. It makes a pointed conversation piece for a home bar, a travel keepsake or a gift for someone who collects unusual barware.

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.
