France road sign ID13a
France road sign ID13a (France) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
This design reproduces the pictogram of French road sign ID13a: a car rolling onto a ferry, drawn as a simple black-and-white flat vector.
Visual Elements & Composition
Black dominates the composition, covering roughly three-fifths of the field, with white taking the rest. A square frame holds the scene. Inside it, a trapezoidal ferry hull sits on wavy water lines, and a rectangular pier block anchors the left edge. A car, seen from the front, rests on the deck. Nothing is decorative. Each shape is reduced to its outline, so the image reads at a glance, the way a sign has to when a driver passes it at speed.
Meaning & Symbolism
Sign ID13a belongs to the regulated road-marking system used across France and the wider European network. Its job is to tell travellers what to expect ahead: a crossing by water, with the vehicle carried over. The sign links the everyday act of driving with the sea, and the wavy lines and pier make that connection plain. It stands for transit, for the points where land routes meet the coast, and for the quiet clarity of public graphic design.
Crafted for the Mixing Glass
A mixing glass is a tall, narrowing vessel that you turn in your hand, and the pictogram suits that. The ferry and its waterline run around a curved surface, so the scene wraps and shifts as the glass moves. The car and pier stay small and steady in the middle of the view. Anyone who has ever waited in a ferry queue will recognise the moment, and the glass gives it a bit of cheek for the next round.

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.
- Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
- Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
- 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.
