About this design
Kokudou China
Kokudou China (China) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design turns a Japanese road sign into a small, bold statement: a red plate, a white frame and a single line of block lettering that announces its route at a glance.
Visual Elements & Composition
Red dominates the artwork, filling most of the surface as a rounded-rectangle sign plate. Inside it, a thin white border runs parallel to the outer edge, forming a nested frame that keeps the eye moving inward. The lettering sits centred in white block capitals, reading GXXX. The result is flat and graphic, with no shadow or ornament, so every element has a job.
Meaning & Symbolism
Kokudō means national route, the designation Japan gives its primary highways, and the plate is a direct nod to that signage tradition. China here refers to the Chūgoku region of western Honshu, the country the route crosses. Road signs are built to be read in a glance at speed, and this design keeps that discipline: one colour field, one message, no clutter. It is a modern, utilitarian take on a sign system drivers navigate by every day.
On the Shot Glass
A shot glass is small, held close and viewed from above as much as from the side, so a bold graphic like this reads clearly where fine detail would disappear. The rounded corners of the plate echo the curve of the rim, and the solid red field stays legible as the glass is turned in the hand. Pour a drink, raise a toast to the next stretch of road, and let the sign do the navigating.

- When you order it
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.
One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
