Soyuz TMA-5 (Soyuz Space Programme) Frosted Pint Glass 16oz

A crew portrait from the Soyuz TMA-5 mission, with three astronauts in spacesuits set before the Russian and American flags.

Visual Elements & Composition

White takes up nearly half the frame, lifting the spacesuits and the light background. Blue and red carry the flags, with black and grey deepening the edges. The three crew members stand in a rectangular arrangement, each shown in full suit, and the flags sit behind them to frame the group. Names are printed in the image: Y. SHARGIN, S. SHARIPOV and L. CHAO. The layout is formal and portrait-like, with the crew at the centre.

Meaning & Symbolism

The mission launched on 14 October 2004 aboard a Soyuz-TMA spacecraft, an upgraded version of the Soyuz-TM design with better accommodation and re-entry safety. Its crew travelled to the International Space Station to support Expedition 10, with two long-duration crew members and a visiting spaceflight participant. The Russian and American flags recall the partnership that keeps the station crewed, and the portrait honours a programme that has carried people into orbit since the 1960s.

Held Close, Turned Slowly

A pint glass has a tall, curved wall, so the crew wraps around it and the names come into view as the glass turns in hand. The frosted matte finish softens the photograph, and the semi-translucent print lets the white and blue glow where the light passes through. It is a quiet tribute for anyone interested in the history of human spaceflight.

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.
