NC 262 1945 (North Carolina) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design is a North Carolina route marker drawn as a rotated square with a double border, carrying the NC monogram over the route number 262.

Visual Elements & Composition

Black and white are the only colours, with white forming most of the field and black tracing the outer border, the inner rule and the characters. The square is turned onto a point, so the form reads as a diamond, and the second outline inside the first gives the frame a precise, engraved finish. The NC monogram rests above the route number, and 262 is the main focus of the layout. The composition is pared back to the marker alone, with no other figures or ornament.

Meaning & Symbolism

A route marker is made to be read in passing, and its shape and numerals do the explaining. The NC names the state and the 262 names the road, so the sign points to one specific route in North Carolina. The 1945 in the design name places it in the mid-twentieth century, when numbered highways were being laid across the United States as a common network. It stands as a clear, informational record of that moment in the state's travel history.

Shaped for a Small Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the marker is seen at arm's length and often turned as the glass is raised. The diamond and its inner border fit comfortably around the curve of the glass, and the black lettering stays sharp from any angle. It is a neat match for a small glass, offering a route number to glance at before the toast.

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.
