Taiwan Air Force OF-1b 1928 Pint Glass Design

This pint glass design celebrates the rank of First Lieutenant (中尉 / Zhōng Wèi) in the Republic of China (Taiwan) Air Force during its early period in 1928. The artwork is a visual tribute to the historical significance of this rank within the formative years of Taiwan's air power.

Visual Elements

The central design element prominently features the First Lieutenant insignia: two stars. The stars, typically displayed on shoulder boards or collars of the uniform, are rendered with careful detail, reflecting the standards of the era. The color of the glass might subtly allude to the Air Force branch, as uniform colors were used to distinguish different branches within the military.

Meaning and Symbolism

The presence of the stars represents the wearer's leadership role within a flight or small squadron unit. It symbolizes authority and the responsibility of supervising junior officers and enlisted personnel in operational duties. This design directly acknowledges the rank as the second-lowest commissioned officer in the early ROC Air Force hierarchy. The design’s focus on the year 1928 provides historical context for the significance of this rank in the formation of the Taiwan Air Force.

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.
