Soyuz 38 (Soyuz Space Programme) Frosted Pint Glass 16oz

This design commemorates Soyuz 38, the September 1980 Soviet flight that carried a Cuban cosmonaut, with astronauts, a space station and the Earth in view.

Visual Elements & Composition

White is the dominant ground, with royal blue and sky blue forming the main field and crimson and gold as small accents. A rectangular layout places the astronauts, the space station and the Earth in a clear sequence. The lettering reads COSMOS, CCCP and SPACE FACTS, which frames the image as a record of a Soviet-led mission. The style is a photographic image with a 1970s colour treatment.

Meaning & Symbolism

Soyuz 38 launched on 18 September 1980 with Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Romanenko and Cuban cosmonaut Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez. The spacecraft docked with the Salyut 6 station, where the crew spent about a week on medical, biological, materials and Earth observation work. Tamayo Méndez became the first Cuban in space and the first person of African descent to fly, a milestone the mission carries in its history. The Intercosmos programme that made the flight possible brought allied nations into Soviet missions, and the design stands for that alliance.

Holding the Station on a Pint

A pint glass is a tall, curved surface, so the astronauts, the station and the Earth wrap around the vessel and come into view as the glass turns in the hand. The frosted finish keeps the white ground soft and holds the blue field and lettering in an even tone across the curve.

Frosted pint glass (16 oz / ≈0.47 L) with a soft matte finish and semi-translucent, one-sided print. Tough enough for bar and restaurant use, dishwasher safe, and BPA-free — a modern take on classic pintware.

These pints are mouth-blown-style glass finished with a satin frost that mutes glare and gives art a soft, tactile presence. The print sits atop the frosted surface to create a semi-see-through effect — the look subtly shifts depending on lighting and what's poured inside.

Because the print is slightly translucent, pale drinks let more light through and darker pours create stronger contrast. That interplay gives each serving a small visual surprise — useful in hospitality settings or retail displays where the drink and the glass play off each other.

  • Material: 100% glass with a matte, frosted finish for a low-reflective, premium feel.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint, ≈0.47 L).
  • Print: one-sided wraparound, semi-translucent finish that changes with light and liquid.
  • Care: dishwasher-safe for everyday service (see Care tab for tips).
  • Use cases: retail shelves, bar service, event glassware, or merch racks — suitable for single units or larger orders.

These glasses work well for chilled beers, craft pours, iced cocktails and cold brew — anywhere you want an elegant, understated presentation. The frosted surface hides minor fingerprints and softens the silhouette of the drink inside.

  1. Serve: fill with cold beverages; the semi-translucent print will interact with the drink color for subtle variation.
  2. Display: stack or line them on back bar shelving where soft lighting emphasizes the frosted texture.
  3. Stocking: sell individually or as a set; their neutral look fits many menu styles and venue aesthetics.

Tip: if you plan themed pours (pale ales, lagers, dark stouts), test a sample to see how each drink’s hue changes the printed artwork’s visibility.

Dishwasher-safe for routine cleaning — use a standard household cycle and avoid very high-heat commercial programs when possible. Placing glasses mouth-down on the rack reduces risk of chipping during wash cycles.

For best longevity, hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive scouring pads and harsh chemical cleaners that can dull the frosted finish or wear printed areas over time.
