Swedish Army OR-1b M1987 Pint Glass Design

This pint glass design pays homage to the Swedish Army rank of OR-1b, specifically as it appeared during the 1987 uniform regulations. The design reflects the position of a Recruit (Rekryt), the entry-level enlisted soldier undergoing basic training.

Visual Elements

The central design element subtly references the absence of formal insignia commonly associated with the OR-1b rank. Instead of explicitly displaying chevrons or rank markings, the design could feature a minimalist representation, such as a simple identifying mark or a stylized element of the Swedish military insignia. This minimalist approach reflects the recruit's focus on basic training and their early stage in military service. The "M1987" designation, which is also on the title, is reflected by using a design style that is inspired by the uniform.

The design may also incorporate subtle visual cues, for instance by using a muted color palette evocative of the Swedish Army's field dress or service uniform. The overall aesthetic is designed to be clean and understated, mirroring the discipline and fundamental nature of the OR-1b's role.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design, by its very nature, symbolizes the starting point of a soldier's military career. It embodies the values of discipline, learning, and the initial stages of integration into a military unit. The use of limited visual elements subtly suggests the simplicity and focus of the recruit's duties, the importance of mastering basic skills, and adherence to military procedures before advancement.

The design serves as a respectful acknowledgement of the entry-level position within the Swedish Army's enlisted ranks, representing the recruits who form the foundation of the military structure.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
