About this design
Route départementale française 1422
Route départementale française 1422 (France) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design takes the form of a French road sign, a flat yellow plate carrying the bold black registration D 1422, and it turns that everyday piece of signage into a small portrait of a particular regional route.
Visual Elements & Composition
Yellow fills roughly 86 percent of the design, with black taking up most of the rest. The plate is a rounded rectangle laid horizontally, and the composition is simple and centred, with nothing competing for attention. The lettering reads D and 1422 in black, set large enough to be read at a glance. The style is flat vector, so the shapes are clean edges and solid fills with no shading or texture to distract the eye.
Meaning & Symbolism
The D marks the route as a departmental road, one of the secondary routes that knit the French countryside into a network of local towns and villages. The number 1422 identifies this one corridor among the many, so the sign stands for local connectivity and territorial identity. Yellow and black are the colours of French regional and departmental road signage, which gives the plate its utilitarian, factual tone. The design honours the everyday infrastructure that carries people through a region, rather than any grand monument.
On the Shot Glass
A shot glass is small and held close, lifted between finger and thumb and looked into at eye level. A plate this compact suits that intimacy: the bold numerals sit directly in view as the glass is raised, and the simple yellow field reads clearly against whatever is inside. It is a design for a toast to a road you know, or one you have only ever driven past.

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.
