Route nationale française 576
Route nationale française 576 (France) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design reproduces a French road marker for the Route nationale 576, rendered as a bold red cartouche with a white letter N and the numerals 576.
Visual Elements & Composition
Red dominates the composition, filling most of the field, while white forms the lettering and the numerals. The layout is strictly minimal: a rounded rectangle carries the bold white N, and a horizontal rectangle holds the white figures 5, 7 and 6. Nothing decorative intervenes. The flat, vector-clean drawing gives every element equal clarity, so the sign reads at a glance, exactly as a road sign should.
Meaning & Symbolism
The marker follows the French standard for national road signage, with its red ground and white numerals. It commemorates the Route nationale 576, which once connected Valréas to Domazan. Following the 1972 administrative reforms, the route was downgraded to departmental roads, now designated D 976 and D 576. The design therefore records a specific stretch of French geography and a moment of administrative change, preserved in the sign's ordered, mid-century look.
Made for the Small Pour
A shot glass is small, held close, and tipped back in a single movement, so the sign gets a moment of close attention rather than a distant glance. The bold red field and the stark white N sit right in the eye line as the glass is raised, a quiet nod to the road trips and cartographer's curiosity that a good pour might inspire. Gift it to someone who has ever followed a road to see where it leads.

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.
