About this design
Route départementale française 956
Route départementale française 956 (France) (Road Sign) Pint Glass 16oz
A rounded yellow plate carries the letter D and the numerals 956, the designation of a departmental road in France.
Visual Elements & Composition
Yellow fills most of the field, with black characters taking up the remaining share. The flat vector treatment keeps every edge crisp, and the rounded rectangle sits as a single, unbroken shape. The letter D leads, followed by the three numerals 956, arranged in one centred line so the eye reads the code left to right without effort. Nothing else competes for attention, which gives the design the clean clarity of standard road signage.
Meaning & Symbolism
In France, the D prefix marks a departmental road, one managed at local level rather than as a national route. The number 956 identifies this particular road within that network, so the plate works as a precise address for a stretch of countryside rather than a decorative flourish. The design draws on the look of French road markings and cartography, turning a piece of infrastructure into a small emblem of place. It is a tidy reminder that every road has a name, and that the smallest routes carry the most local character.
Made for the Mixing Glass in Your Hand
A mixing glass is built to be lifted, tilted and returned to the table, so the artwork is seen from close range and turned as the glass moves. The plate reads clearly from the side as the glass rotates, and the single line of characters stays legible whichever way it faces. Pour, stir, shake, serve: the road number keeps its place through every stage. It makes a cheeky conversation starter for anyone who has ever navigated by number rather than by name.

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.
