The shield is a pentagon with a clean outline, and the figures sit centred within it in bold, plain lettering. White covers most of the surface, with black framing the shield and filling the background, so the sign reads instantly at a glance. There is no decoration, no gradient and no shading. Every element is pared back to the shape of the sign and the two lines of text on it, which is why the composition feels so deliberate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shield is the standard route marker used on state roads, and the MG on it is the abbreviation for Minas Gerais, one of Brazil's largest states. The number 117 identifies this particular highway within the state network. The design takes a piece of everyday roadside signage and lifts it into a graphic emblem of Brazilian travel, a small reminder of the long distances and winding routes that connect its towns. It is a modern, transportation-themed motif, drawn in the flat vector style common to contemporary signage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for the Morning Routine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned in the hand as you drink, so the shield passes in front of you with every sip, a flat graphic that rotates into view and back again. The black field frames the sign the way a dark night frames a roadside marker, and the white shield stands out clearly against it. It is a fitting pick for anyone who has ever followed a route number across a map or a long drive, and a cheeky way to start the day with a little road trip of your own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53182805606680,"sku":"GMY-MUG-MG117-11OZ-2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53182805639448,"sku":"GMY-MUG-MG117-15OZ-1FRPW","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/mg-117-brazil-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-MG117-11OZ-2-front.webp?v=1794194896","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/mg-117-brazil-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
