Taiwan Army OF-2 (1946) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the historical insignia of a First Lieutenant in the Republic of China (ROC) Army during 1946, a period marking significant political and military upheaval. The design is a direct representation of the "Zhōngwèi" (中尉) rank, corresponding to NATO's OF-2 designation.

Visual Elements

The central design element is the insignia of a First Lieutenant. This is typically depicted as a configuration of one or two stars, sometimes accompanied by additional decorative elements, meticulously rendered. The precise style of the stars and any embellishments reflect the historical detail, providing an authentic representation of the era's military rank structure. The stars symbolize the rank held by a junior commissioned officer, denoting leadership and responsibility.

Symbolism and Meaning

The artwork's design and imagery directly relate to a specific moment in military history. By featuring the ROC Army OF-2 insignia, the glass serves as a visual homage to the military service of individuals who held this rank during a pivotal time in Chinese history, pre and post-relocation to Taiwan. The design therefore represents the courage, leadership, and service of the men who served as platoon leaders, company staff officers, or deputy company commanders. It stands as a visual tribute to their dedication during a time of great change.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 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 — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — 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 / ≈0.47 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 — 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.
