NC 581 1957 (North Carolina) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz

This design takes the plain black-and-white look of a North Carolina highway marker and sets the route number, 581, and the year, 1957, at its centre.

Visual Elements & Composition

The artwork is a flat, two-tone graphic in pure black on white. A black diamond outline frames the composition, the classic shape used for secondary route signage, and the numerals 581 sit inside it with the letters NC above. Nothing competes with the sign: no border, no gradient, no decoration. Black covers a small share of the field, so the white space reads as the dominant element and the diamond and numerals stand out sharply against it.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design belongs to the visual language of American state highways. The NC monogram identifies North Carolina, and the diamond marks a secondary route rather than an interstate. Pairing the number with the year 1957 turns an everyday piece of road furniture into a dated reference point, the kind of marker a traveller or a local would recognise at once. The result is a straightforward tribute to the state and its roads.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A sign is read at a glance from a distance, and this artwork suits a glass that is held and turned in the hand in the same way. The diamond and numerals wrap around the tall, straight sides of the vessel, so the route marker stays in view from every angle as you pour, stir or sip. Set it on a bar cart or beside a stack of books and the sign becomes a conversation piece for anyone who has driven the back roads of North Carolina.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
