Kokudou 239China (China) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design reproduces the road marker for China National Highway 239, shown as a bold red plate carrying the route number G239.
Visual Elements & Composition
Red dominates the design, covering most of the surface, with white lettering and a white inner border set inside a rounded rectangle. The composition is flat and direct: a single line of white G239 sits at the centre of the plate, with nothing competing for attention. The nested border gives the plate a framed, finished look, and the flat vector treatment keeps every edge crisp.
Meaning & Symbolism
The sign follows China's GB 5768 standard for road signs, which fixes the red background and white lettering that drivers recognise at a glance. In the numbering system, the "G" stands for Guó, meaning nation or state, and marks the route as part of the national highway network. The term 国道 (guódào) translates to national highway. G239 begins in Zhenglan Banner in Inner Mongolia and runs south to Yangquan in Shanxi province, passing through Hebei on the way, so the number carries the journey between those regions.
Made for a Shot Glass
A shot glass is small and held close, so the plate is read at arm's length, one glance at a time. The red field and the single numeral reward that close look: the bold colour registers across the table, and the route number reveals itself as the glass is lifted. It makes a cheeky nod to road-trippers and map lovers, a little piece of the highway to raise at the end of a long drive.

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.
