About this design
Route départementale française 340
Route départementale française 340 (France) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This flat vector design reproduces the registration-style plate of the French departmental road D340, set as bold black characters on a rounded amber yellow field.
Visual Elements & Composition
Amber yellow fills roughly 85 percent of the composition, with black taking up the remaining 15 percent. The result is a single, uncluttered rounded rectangle that reads at a glance. The lettering is the entire story: a black "D" followed by "340", set straight across the centre with nothing competing for attention. Every element is flat and graphic, with no shading or texture, so the plate looks as direct as the signage it echoes.
Meaning & Symbolism
The D340 is a route within the French departmental road network, the tier of roads managed at regional level beneath the national highways. Plates and signs of this kind are how travellers identify a road, and the design honours that quiet function. It stands for French geography and the connectivity that binds towns and districts together through a numbered system. The mood is deliberately neutral: the design celebrates the factual, administrative character of the road network rather than any dramatic scene.
Designed for the Glass in Hand
A shot glass is small and held close, so this plate is seen from above and at arm's length, the way a driver reads a number before passing it. The compact yellow rectangle sits neatly within the glass's circumference, and the bold black numerals stay legible as the glass is lifted and turned. It is a fitting choice for anyone who likes their gifts with a sense of place and a little road-trip swagger.

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.
