Flag of Ōno Hokkaido 1915-2006 (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the municipal flag of Ōno, a former town in Hokkaido, Japan, that was in use from 1915 until 2006.

Visual Elements & Composition

Dark green fills most of the design, roughly four-fifths of its surface, with gold taking the remaining fifth as the accent. The flag is built on a rectangle, and at its centre sits a circular badge made of concentric rings. Those rings are broken, so the outer edges open up instead of closing into a full circle. Inside the badge, three hook-shaped spirals sit in a triangle, and that spiral cluster is the clear focal point. The style is flat and vector-clean, with no shading or texture, so every edge reads sharply.

Meaning & Symbolism

A municipal flag like this one was a compact statement of local identity. It told residents and visitors what the community was and gave it a recognisable mark for public life. The spirals and the ring-based badge are the core of the emblem, and their arrangement was chosen to read as a single, self-contained symbol. Ōno's flag belongs to the twentieth century, a period when many Japanese towns adopted heraldic insignia to represent their administrative identity. Its use ended in 2006, which is why it now serves as a record of a specific chapter in northern Japanese regional history.

Made for the Hand and the Hour

A shot glass is small and held close, so the badge sits at eye level as it is lifted, turned and set down again. The composition is compact enough to read in one glance, and the spiral triangle comes into view at the moment the glass is raised. Each pour becomes a short, deliberate look at a piece of Hokkaido's civic history, which makes this a conversation piece for a home bar or a collector's shelf.

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.
