About this design
ISL 358
ISL 358 (Iceland) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design reproduces a route marker from Iceland's road network: a bold black numeral 358 set inside a crisp, rounded white sign.
Visual Elements & Composition
The artwork is a flat, graphic composition in just two colours. White covers most of the field, and black carries the numerals and the rounded rectangle border that frames them. The sign is centred and symmetrical, with nothing decorative around it. The numerals 358 dominate, read clearly from a distance, and the border gives the figures a clean boundary. Its minimalist, utilitarian look is deliberate, with every line serving the number.
Meaning & Symbolism
The prefix "ISL" is the country code for Iceland, and 358 identifies one specific route within the national listings. This is a route number sign rather than a warning or regulatory marker, so its job is simple: it confirms to motorists that they are travelling along the designated road, here Einholtsvegur, a secondary route. Each number is a fixed address on the map, and the sign reflects how Iceland organises and labels its secondary transport routes. It is a neat piece of national infrastructure in miniature, and an appealing one for anyone who enjoys cartography, travel or the logic of road systems.
Made for the Shot Glass Moment
A shot glass is small, lifted in one hand and held close to the eye, so a design like this suits it well. The number reads at a glance across a table, and the sign's plain black-and-white frame makes a tidy, graphic focal point on a compact surface. It is a good conversation starter for a travel-minded friend, a Nordic road trip memory, or a gift for someone who has spent time following signs across unfamiliar country.

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.
