Proposed flag for Hong Kong SAR 013 (China) Pint Glass 16oz

This flat vector design is a 1990s flag proposal built from a few bold shapes, a single letter and a five-pointed star.

Visual Elements & Composition

Red dominates the design, covering roughly three-fifths of its surface, with white taking about 30 percent and yellow the remaining accents. The layout is minimalist and geometric, built from rectangles and triangles that sit cleanly against one another. A stylised letter H and a five-pointed star are the only figures, so the eye moves quickly from the field of red to the star and letter, and the restraint of the composition is what gives it its punch.

Meaning & Symbolism

The proposal was submitted during the public flag contest held before the 1997 handover of Hong Kong to the People's Republic of China, when the local government invited citizens and designers to imagine a regional flag for the territory's new status as a Special Administrative Region. The creator's intent was never formally recorded, so the meaning of each shape and colour remains open to interpretation. What is documented is its place in the archive: an unadopted entry that captures the wide civic debate about identity that surrounded the transfer of sovereignty.

Made for the Mixing Glass

A flag is a design meant to be seen whole and at a glance, and this one suits a glass that offers the same kind of uninterrupted view. The clear sides let the red field read straight through the drink, so the star and letter stay visible as the glass is lifted and turned. It makes a conversation starter for a home bar, a thoughtful pick for someone who enjoys history with their cocktails, and a reminder that a single bold symbol can carry a whole moment in time.

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.
