James Mcgrail In Union Uniform With Shoulder Scales And Eagle Breast Plate Sitting With A Musket And Bayonet In Scabbard (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A seated young soldier in Union dress holds a musket across his body in this hand-coloured tintype, set in an ornate gilt case.

Visual Elements & Composition

Gold leads the palette, touching the case, the belt buckle and the plates on the uniform, against a dark navy wool and soft grey tones in the background. The sitter is framed in a rectangular window of the tintype, with his kepi and its insignia set high in the image. The musket runs diagonally across his body, and the bayonet rests in its scabbard at his side. The uniform's metal fittings, including an oval cartridge-box plate on the crossbelt and an oval waist buckle, catch the light and give the portrait its structure.

Meaning & Symbolism

The portrait shows a soldier at the moment of being recorded, with his weapon held ready and his uniform arranged for the camera. The musket and bayonet stand for the infantry service of the Civil War, and the decorated plates on the belts and the shoulder scales show the pride a volunteer took in his dress. The gilt case, like the tintype itself, was made to keep one man's likeness for the family who treasured it.

Shaped for a Close Look

This mixing glass is a tall pint with a narrow base and a clear body, held close and turned as the drink is poured. A small tintype portrait invites the same close attention, since the buckles, the cap and the rifle only come clear at close range. Viewed through the glass, the gold fittings and the dark uniform stay sharp, and the soldier seems to hold his place with the steadiness of a man on parade.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
