Two Unidentified Civil War Soldiers In Union Uniforms, Seated In A Photographer's Studio; One Is Holding A Saber (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

This design is a black and white carte-de-visite from the 1860s, showing two men in military-style coats seated together in a studio before a draped curtain.

Visual Elements & Composition

The two seated figures are posed side by side in wide-brimmed hats and period military coats. A sword rests against the seated man, its long line running through the middle of the frame. A draped curtain forms the backdrop, and a thin white border frames the tall vertical portrait. The palette is entirely monochrome, moving from pale grey to charcoal, which gives the picture its formal, measured tone.

Meaning & Symbolism

Studio portraits of this kind were made in large numbers during the American Civil War, when soldiers and their families sat for images to mark a departure or to keep a memory. The formal pose, the uniform and the sword speak of military service and of the seriousness with which it was regarded. The solemn mood of the image reflects the way many portraits of this period were composed, with dignity and restraint.

Set the Portrait Against the Glass

A pint glass is held close and turned in the hand, so the two seated figures and the sword come round in view with every movement. The black and white tones suit the clear glass well. It is a fitting piece for anyone drawn to the personal side of military history, the faces and posture behind the uniforms.

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.
