Unidentified Soldier In Union First Lieutenant's Uniform And Child In Zouave Uniform With Model 1860 Cavalry Saber (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A Union first lieutenant in a frock coat stands with arms crossed beside a young child in Zouave dress who holds a cavalry sabre, a carte de visite from the Civil War.

Visual Elements & Composition

Sepia brown covers almost half the card, with dark sepia deepening the uniforms and the carved chair. Pale cream lights the faces and the thin border of the card, while muted taupe softens the background. Near-black marks the officer's coat and the sabre's blade. The two figures sit side by side in the centre, the adult's stillness balanced by the child's upright pose, and the sabre runs between them as the composition's clearest line.

Meaning & Symbolism

The lieutenant's frock coat and crossed arms speak of command and composure, while the sabre is the Model 1860 pattern that many cavalry officers carried. The child's Zouave jacket recalls the dashing infantry style that was fashionable in the Union armies of 1861 to 1865. Pairing a soldier with a young family member in a studio portrait was a way of showing lineage, pride and the wartime bonds that held households together.

On the Glass

A mixing glass is a tall, narrow vessel held close in the hand, so this carte de visite is read at arm's length, the way such cards were passed around a parlour. The straight sides of the glass suit the vertical stance of both figures and the sabre's long line. The soft sepia palette sits gently against the colour of a drink, giving the design a warm, familial feel.

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.
