Unidentified Sailor In Union Uniform At American Flag-Draped Table In Front Of Painted Backdrop Showing Naval Ship (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A hand-tinted tintype of a standing sailor in a dark uniform, posed beside a flag-draped table in front of a painted naval scene.

Visual Elements & Composition

Warm grey and antique gold fill most of the picture, with dark navy giving the sailor's jersey and cap their depth. Off-white and a muted red show in the folds of the draped star-and-stripe flag, and the stripes of the flag run through the lower half of the image. The painted backdrop places a naval vessel behind the figure, and the gilt-embossed case frames the whole scene in a rounded-corner mat.

Meaning & Symbolism

The flag, the sailor's uniform and the ship in the backdrop together make a clear statement of Union naval service during the American Civil War. Photographic studios of the period often posed sailors and soldiers before painted scenes and draped flags, so the setting is a conventional way of announcing allegiance and service. The sailor himself is unidentified, which leaves the portrait as a record of the type of naval figure the era produced rather than of one named man.

On the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is held close and turned in the hand as it stirs, so the portrait is seen at arm's length and in fine detail. The narrow, tapered body keeps the flag and the gilt frame in view as the glass is lifted. A piece of barware that is handled every time it is used puts this maritime scene in an everyday setting.

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.
