Iowa 11 (Iowa) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases a faithful reproduction of the official Iowa Highway 11 road sign, a familiar sight for travelers in northeastern Iowa. The design is a direct translation of the state route marker, instantly recognizable to anyone who has navigated the byways of the Hawkeye State.

Visual Elements

The design adheres to the established visual language of Iowa road signage. The artwork presents a crisp, clean aesthetic. The primary element is a bold "11" rendered in black, prominently centered on the shot glass. Above this number, the word "IOWA" is displayed in matching black capital letters, echoing the standard inscription found on all Iowa state route markers.

The background of the design is a stark white, offering a clean canvas that emphasizes the bold black lettering. A black border, mirroring the outline of an actual road sign, defines the shape. The combination of black and white creates strong contrast, ensuring the design is easily visible and immediately communicates its purpose.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents Iowa Highway 11, a critical piece of infrastructure in the Dubuque County region. It symbolizes a connection between communities, linking them to the broader transportation network and the nearby Mississippi River. For those familiar with the area, the sign evokes the experience of driving along the route, a short but essential connector.

More broadly, the design embodies the spirit of travel and the familiar iconography of the American road. It is a tribute to the state's transportation infrastructure and a nod to the adventures that can be found on Iowa's highways.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours โ€” less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. 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 โ€” 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.

One size only: 1.5 oz (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
