About this design
Geschwindigkeitsschild 80 kmh StVZO 58
Geschwindigkeitsschild 80 kmh StVZO 58 (Germany) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This is a faithful graphic reproduction of a German speed limit sign set at 80 km/h, drawn in the visual language of the StVZO 58 road traffic regulations.
Visual Elements & Composition
The design is built on a centred, circular format with nothing competing for attention. A bright red outer ring frames a crisp white field, and the numerals and unit sit in bold black type across the middle. Red, white and black are the only colours used, so the eye lands on the number before anything else. The result is spare and utilitarian, with no decoration added beyond what the sign itself requires.
Meaning & Symbolism
A speed limit sign is a直接 instruction: one number, one message, read at a glance from a moving vehicle. The 80 km/h value marks a maximum speed on German roads, and the StVZO 58 reference ties the graphic to the regulatory style that governs German road traffic signage. The design speaks to road regulation, highway signage and the driving culture that grows around both, and it presents that subject plainly, as a piece of working iconography.
Made for Close Company
A shot glass is small and held close, usually raised at eye level for a moment before it is drunk. That suits a sign designed to be read in an instant. Here the circle, the bold numerals and the red border become a quick, clear image held in the hand, a neat conversation piece for anyone who appreciates road signs, German motoring or minimalist graphic work. It makes a cheeky, practical gift for a driver friend, or a fun addition to a shelf of travel and automotive curiosities.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.
These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.
They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.
- Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
- Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
- Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
- Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
- Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.
Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.
- Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
- Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
- Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.
Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.
Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.
When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.
