The pentagon is drawn as a bold shape with a thin outline border running just inside its edge, so the sign reads as a crisp, self-contained emblem. The numerals \u003cstrong\u003e340\u003c\/strong\u003e sit at the centre in heavy black, with the letters \u003cstrong\u003eSP\u003c\/strong\u003e set above them as the prefix. There is no background scenery or ornament: the sign is the whole composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSP-340 is a route designation from the state of São Paulo in Brazil, and the pentagon with its prefix is the standard way Brazilian state highways are marked. The design carries the language of the road itself: direction, distance and the simple promise that you are on the right path. Its modern, utilitarian look reflects the everyday signage that lines the highways it names, so the artwork speaks as much about travel and navigation as about any single place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy It Suits This Mug\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is turned in the hand, so the sign rotates past the eye with each sip, and the bold black pentagon stays legible from across the table. Wrapped around the curve of the body, the numerals read clearly from the handle side and the front alike. It makes a good companion for a long drive planned over a slow morning coffee, or for anyone whose road trips have been measured in highway numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53181529293080,"sku":"GMY-MUG-SP340-11OZ-2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53181529325848,"sku":"GMY-MUG-SP340-15OZ-1FRBI","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/sp-340-brazil-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-SP340-11OZ-2-front.webp?v=1794188210","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/sp-340-brazil-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
