Flag of the Maeda Lords of Kanazawa in Kaga Province B (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

Ochre brown fills almost the whole field, and a single white blossom sits in the middle as the only mark on it.

Visual Elements & Composition

Ochre brown covers about four-fifths of the surface, with white making up the rest, so the emblem reads with strong contrast. The flower is a stylised five-petalled form, drawn as a rosette around a central disc with radiating stamens. The composition is symmetrical and centred, with the badge-like emblem holding the middle of the field. The flat vector finish keeps every edge hard and clean, and there is no text or numeral to break the emblem apart.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem is the plum blossom mon of the Maeda clan, the family whose heraldry marked their regalia throughout the Sengoku and Edo periods. The Maeda ruled Kaga Domain from Kanazawa Castle from 1583 to 1868, with a domain worth a million koku, which made them the second most powerful lords in Japan after the Tokugawa. Variant B is one of three documented flags of the house, each serving a different role in battle formations, processions and display at the castle. The family's patronage also left a lasting mark on Kanazawa, where the Kenroku-en garden is one of Japan's three great gardens.

Held in the Hand

A pint glass has a tall, curved wall, so the emblem wraps around the body and turns as the glass is lifted. The dark ochre field makes the white blossom stand out against the clear glass and the drink behind it, so the flag stays visible from every side of 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.
