I-264 VA 1961 (Road Sign) White Coffee Mug: Design Description

This coffee mug showcases a vibrant and historically significant design, replicating the appearance of the original Interstate 264 road sign from Virginia, dating back to 1961. The artwork pays homage to the early days of the Interstate Highway System, capturing the essence of a bygone era in American transportation.

Shield and Color Palette

The centerpiece of the design is the classic Interstate shield, a symbol instantly recognizable by its bold graphic style. A prominent red banner across the top proudly displays the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white lettering, immediately communicating the roadway's designation. Beneath, a field of rich blue forms the foundation, providing the perfect backdrop for the large, attention-grabbing white numerals "264" that command the center. This color scheme – red, white, and blue – is deliberately chosen to embody American patriotism and the forward-thinking spirit of the early Interstate system.

Border and State Identity

The entire shield design is outlined with a clean white border. This detail enhances the visual impact and clarity of the sign, making it easily distinguishable. Some designs may also feature the state name "VIRGINIA" on the bottom; in other designs, it's omitted. This design replicates the classic look and feel of the original, serving as a nostalgic throwback to the early 1960s.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents the Interstate 264, the high-speed connection between Norfolk and Virginia Beach. It is also representative of America's vast highway system. The mug, therefore, offers a slice of Americana, transporting the viewer back in time to the era of new infrastructure projects. This mug design is a celebration of history, design, and a connection to the freedom of the open road.

Sturdy white ceramic mugs available in 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml), with a glossy finish and comfortable C-handle — microwave and dishwasher safe, and made from lead- and BPA-free materials.

These mugs are built from durable white ceramic so colors pop cleanly and prints read with strong contrast. A smooth, glossy glaze gives each mug a lively sheen and makes it easy to wipe clean after daily use.

Both sizes feature a classic C-shaped handle that feels natural in the hand; whether you sip slowly or gulp quickly, the grip is steady. Safety-wise, the ceramic is processed to be lead- and BPA-free — suitable for everyday drinking.

  • Material: white ceramic with a glossy glaze for bright, clear prints.
  • Sizes: 11 oz (≈330 ml) and 15 oz (≈440 ml) to suit small and generous pours.
  • Handle: comfortable C-handle for balanced holding and easy lifting.
  • Safety: lead-free and BPA-free for peace of mind with every cup.
  • Finish: glossy surface that highlights saturated inks and smooth detail.

Perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or a rich hot chocolate — these mugs fit comfortably in most cabinets and cupholders. They’re also a reliable choice for office kitchens where items see frequent use.

  1. Everyday use: safe for hot liquids and daily serving; the wider 15 oz option works great for larger morning routines or extra-steamy drinks.
  2. Office-friendly: the classic profile stacks easily with similar mugs and sits securely on standard saucers and trays.
  3. Gift idea: a practical, well-finished mug is useful and simple to display or wrap for gifting.

Quick note: while the mugs are dishwasher-safe, treating them gently helps keep the print looking fresh longer (see Care tab).

These mugs are rated for microwave and dishwasher use, but small habits extend their life. Run them on the top rack of the dishwasher and avoid high-temperature commercial cycles whenever possible.

For longest-lasting print clarity: hand wash with mild dish soap and a soft cloth, avoid abrasive scouring pads, and don’t let them soak in strong detergents. When microwaving, use short intervals and avoid empty heating.

Available sizes: 11 oz (approximately 330 ml) and 15 oz (approximately 440 ml). The 11 oz is a classic coffee size; the 15 oz gives extra room for cream, froth, or larger servings.

Each mug has a standard-width mouth for easy sipping and cleaning; height and diameter vary slightly between sizes to maintain comfortable proportions and sturdy balance.
