Flag of the Ii Lords of Hikone in Omi Province A (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This flag shows a white five-petalled blossom with leaves, set inside a golden-yellow ring, the crest used by the Ii lords of Hikone.

Visual Elements & Composition

The design is flat and bold, with golden yellow filling most of the field and white reserved for the crest. The blossom sits at the centre of a circular ring, its five petals and leaves cut clean against the yellow. The ring and badge shapes repeat in a simple, symmetrical layout, so the crest reads clearly from a distance.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Ii clan received Hikone Domain in Omi Province, on the eastern shore of Lake Biwa, in 1600, after Ii Naomasa distinguished himself at Sekigahara. The clan's mon, the Hikone Tachibana, is a stylised tachibana flower, a sign of longevity and enduring strength. This banner is the first of three documented configurations the household used, and it stands for a house that ruled Hikone until 1871.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is a vessel that is turned and tilted in the hand as a drink is stirred, so a circular crest suits it well. As the glass turns, the ring and the blossom pass the eye in a steady rotation, much like the cycle of the flower it depicts.

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.
