Green fills most of the field, with a yellow band and white lettering carrying the information, and a touch of dark grey provides the edging. The Chinese characters for Guizhou (黔) and expressway (高速) sit alongside the route number S17, all set centred and squared off so the eye reads straight across. Nothing decorative interrupts the arrangement; every mark is there to be read at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoute shields like this one are the working language of modern highways. The province name tells you where you are, the expressway label tells you what kind of road you are on, and the S17 designation tells you which path to follow. Together they turn a stretch of tarmac into a set of directions. The sign comes from Guizhou, a province in southwest China, and reflects the standardised signage system used across the country's transit network, which is why its flat, functional look reads as modern and orderly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for the Hand, Read at Close Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is held and turned, so the sign travels with you as you lift it, and each turn brings the next part of the shield into view. Whoever holds this cup gets a quiet nod to the road, the kind of wayfinding that is easy to miss until you notice it. Pour a second cup and the route number is still waiting to take you somewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53166540718360,"sku":"GMY-MUG-GZHXPW-11OZ-1FN78","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53166540751128,"sku":"GMY-MUG-GZHXPW-15OZ-1FN78","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/guizhou-expwy-s17-sign-no-name-china-road-sign-white-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-GZHXPW-11OZ-1FN78-front.webp?v=1793954685","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/guizhou-expwy-s17-sign-no-name-china-road-sign-white-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
