About this design
Route départementale française 1504
Route départementale française 1504 (France) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
This design takes the standard French departmental road designation and gives it the whole surface, presenting the D1504 as a clean, self-contained emblem of one stretch of the national road network.
Visual Elements & Composition
Amber yellow fills most of the composition, with black characters set into a horizontal rounded rectangle. The letter "D" sits beside the numerals "1504," and nothing else competes for attention. The flat vector treatment keeps every edge crisp, so the lettering reads at a glance. The palette is almost entirely yellow and black, a high-contrast pairing that makes the designation the clear focal point.
Meaning & Symbolism
The "D" marks a route as a departmental road, one of the secondary roads managed at the level of France's departments, and the 1504 identifies this particular segment within that network. The yellow-and-black scheme follows the conventions of French vehicle registration plates, so the design reads as a modern image of everyday French travel. It belongs to the wider themes of cartography and transport, where a short code stands in for an entire route.
On the Mixing Glass
A mixing glass is a tall, curved vessel that spends its working life in the hand, tilted for stirring and turned toward the light as it is poured. The D1504 plate wraps around that curve, so the lettering shifts and reappears with every turn. It is a quiet, graphic nod to the road trip and the regional journey, made for someone who likes their drinks with a bit of travel behind them.

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.
- Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
- Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
- 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.
