About this design
NH56B-IN
NH56B-IN (India) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design is built around a single idea: a systematic code, NH56B-IN, paired with the name of a country, India, in a clean, direct piece of cataloguing.
Visual Elements & Composition
The composition is restrained. The title does the work, with the alphanumeric identifier NH56B-IN and the bracketed word (India) setting the subject without ornament or narrative detail. Nothing competes with the text, so the eye goes straight to the code and the place it names. The result reads as a label rather than a scene, with the lettering and numerals forming the whole image.
Meaning & Symbolism
The meaning sits in the classification itself. NH56B-IN is a categorical entry within an India-themed series, and its structured naming marks it as a geographical and cultural identifier. Rather than telling a story, the piece points to a region and places it inside an organised body of work, the way a museum or archive gives each object a reference number alongside its place of origin. It belongs to a wider library of national and cultural motifs, and the design's systematic mood is part of its message: India is presented as a defined, catalogued subject.
On the Shot Glass
A shot glass is small and lifted close to the face, so the design is read at a few inches rather than across a room. The identifier and the word India sit where the eye falls as the glass is raised, and the label-like layout suits an object that is handled and looked into rather than displayed at a distance. Pour, lift and read: the code becomes a small, deliberate detail for a gift or a 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.
- 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.
