Japanese Crest Asahikage Shot Glass: A Visual Journey

This shot glass showcases the powerful "Asahikage" (旭日影), a distinctive Japanese crest. The artwork presents a stylized sunburst, a radiant design symbolizing the rising sun in Japanese culture. The primary visual element is the five-fold symmetric arrangement of the sun's rays, which emanate outwards from a central point.

Design Elements and Representation

The "Asahikage" crest on this glass is distinguished by its dramatic black background, which further emphasizes the brightness and dynamic quality of the sunburst. The sun's rays are the focal point, creating a sense of energy, power, and authority. The visual impact is one of bold simplicity, relying on the contrast between the black background and the radiating form.

Symbolism

The design speaks of glory, renewal, and strength. The sun motif is often associated with official or institutional authority, as seen in its use in Japanese police insignia. The crest represents a powerful symbol, evoking imagery of brilliance and a central source of light.

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.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — 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 — 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 (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
