Flag of Ouetsu Reppan Domei or the Northern Alliance in Japan (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

An interlaced five-pointed star, drawn in clean monochrome, dominates this reproduction of the banner of the Ouetsu Reppan Domei, the northern coalition of Japanese domains that rose against the Meiji government in 1868.

Visual Elements & Composition

The palette is severe: a near-black brown and a clean white, with the white taking up most of the field. The star is built from overlapping curved strokes, so the five points appear to loop through one another rather than sitting flat. At its centre is an open pentagon, which gives the eye a quiet place to rest. Nothing else is added. The flat vector rendering keeps every stroke crisp, and the high contrast means the star reads instantly from across a room.

Meaning & Symbolism

The star is the Abeno-Seimei seal, a symbol tied to the Heian-era diviner Abe no Seimei, and it was widely believed to carry protective, magical power. The coalition adopted it in early 1868, during the Boshin War, to stand for the domains of Mutsu, Dewa and northern Echigo as they opposed the new Meiji government. The flag therefore records a moment when regional loyalty and belief in an old protective sign were pressed into the service of a political cause.

Shaped for the Mixing Glass, 16oz

A narrow base and a clear, uninterrupted wall give this star room to be seen. The glass is crystal clear, so the seal shows through the drink as it is poured and lifted. Its solid base keeps the design steady on the table, and the slim lower section sits neatly in the hand, placing the star where your eye falls naturally when you raise the glass.

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.
