The code and the country name carry the design, so the lettering does the work that imagery would do elsewhere. Nothing is layered on top of it. The eye lands on the identifier first, then on the word India, and the sign's own format sets the reading order from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn India's road numbering, the \u003cstrong\u003eNH\u003c\/strong\u003e prefix marks a National Highway, and \u003cstrong\u003e20\u003c\/strong\u003e is its route number within that network. The \u003cstrong\u003eIN\u003c\/strong\u003e is India's ISO country code, the same two letters used on international vehicle and shipping paperwork. Put together, the code points to a specific national route in India, which makes this a piece about travel, distance and the roads that connect a country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy It Suits a Mixing Glass\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mixing glass is handled close and turned slowly while the drink is stirred, so a sign printed on it is read at arm's length, a little at a time, as the glass moves. Road signs are designed to be read at a glance, and this one rewards the same habit: a quick look at the route, then back to the drink. For anyone who has ever followed a long road to its end, it is a fitting thing to hold between sips.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"16oz","offer_id":53178427932952,"sku":"GMY-MIXI-NHND-16OZ-1E14I","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/nh20-in-india-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz-GMY-MIXI-NHND-16OZ-1E14I-front.webp?v=1794150932","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/nh20-in-india-road-sign-pint-glass-16oz","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
