Flag of the Nabeshima Lords of Saga in Hizen Province B (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

A white paulownia blossom sits inside a ringed badge on a cobalt blue field, a circular crest built for clear recognition.

Visual Elements & Composition

Cobalt blue dominates the surface, with white drawing the ring and the flower. A white circular band encloses a blue disc, and the stylised paulownia blossom rests at the centre, its overlapping petals and stems drawn in flat, economical strokes. The ring gives the emblem a badge-like edge, while the blossom sits within it as the focal point. The design carries no text or numerals, so the contrast of blue and white does all of the work.

Meaning & Symbolism

This is the second of the banner variants used by the Nabeshima clan, the lords who governed Saga Domain in Hizen Province, in northwestern Kyushu, through the Sengoku and Edo periods. Samurai houses kept several banners for battlefield identification, castle display and ceremony, and this variant served the same purpose. The paulownia flower, or kiri, marks the clan's identity, and the Nabeshima traced their noble ancestry through the Shōni family and the Fujiwara. Toyotomi Hideyoshi confirmed their Saga enfeoffment in 1587, and the clan ruled until the Meiji Restoration of 1868.

A Badge Turned in the Hand

A pint glass gives the ring and blossom a tall, curved surface to wrap, so the crest moves around the drinker as the glass is lifted and turned. The white band reads clearly against the cobalt when light passes through the glass. The narrower base keeps the glass comfortable to hold, and the badge stays in view from every side of the pour.

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.
