About this design
Rutacol-70NS06-1C
Rutacol-70NS06-1C (Colombia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design is a route-marker plate: a dark green rounded rectangle carrying a single road code, the kind of reference that tells a traveller exactly which stretch of tarmac they are on.
Visual Elements & Composition
Dark green fills most of the plate, with white taking up the rest in a thin inner border that follows the rounded corners. Nothing competes with the sign's main element. The alphanumeric code 70NS06-1 sits centred in white sans-serif capitals, set on the flat green field. The look is flat, modern and deliberately plain, with no ornament, shading or illustration. Every decision serves legibility at a glance from a moving vehicle.
Meaning & Symbolism
The code is a piece of Colombia's nomenclatura vial, the formal system that numbers and organises the national and departmental road networks. The prefix "70" refers to Ruta 70, a national route, and "NS06" identifies a secondary departmental branch linking Villa del Rosario and Cúcuta in the Norte de Santander region. The final "-1" marks a localised sub-segment. Read as a whole, the plate is a map condensed into a label: a national route, a regional branch and a single stretch within it, each level sitting inside the next.
Designed for the Hand, Read Up Close
A shot glass is small and held close, so this plate suits the format. The sign's bold green field and single line of white text stay clear at the distance of a raised glass, and the rounded border mirrors the curve of the rim. It is a quiet, precise design that rewards a closer look, and it makes a natural conversation piece for anyone who has ever followed a road number across a map.

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.
