About this design
Route départementale française 761
Route départementale française 761 (France) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
This design takes a single piece of French road infrastructure, the Route départementale 761, and reduces it to its designation in bold, graphic form.
Visual Elements & Composition
Amber yellow fills most of the artwork, with black characters set across it in a flat, modern vector style. The composition is built on a rounded rectangle, and the letter D and the numerals 761 sit at its centre as the only elements. There is no illustration, border or decoration to compete with them. The result is a clean, high-contrast block of type that reads at a glance, with the typography doing all the work.
Meaning & Symbolism
In France, routes départementales are roads managed at departmental level, and the D prefix with a number is how each one is identified across the regional network. The D761 is one of these local arteries, and its designation is the marker drivers and map-makers rely on to find their way. The artwork honours that everyday system of signposting, where a short code carries a whole route's identity. Its restrained palette and minimal layout echo the functional sign design that French road users see every day.
Holding the Design in Hand
A mixing glass is a hand-sized vessel, held close and turned as it is poured, so the design is seen at arm's length rather than across a room. The yellow field and the central D761 stay legible as the glass is lifted, and the rounded rectangle sits naturally against the curve of the vessel. It is a fitting pick for anyone who has ever followed a French signpost on a long drive and wanted a reminder of the road on the next table.

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.
