Unidentified Soldier In Union Hospital Steward Uniform (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A tintype portrait in a gilt case shows a seated man with a moustache, dressed in a Union hospital steward's jacket and wide-brimmed hat.

Visual Elements & Composition

Sepia grey covers most of the picture, with antique gold in the ornate brass case and dark charcoal in the jacket. A touch of dusty rose warms the edges of the tintype. The sitter is placed in the centre of a scalloped oval frame, and the rectangular hinged case around it adds a second, formal border. The wide brim of the hat and the line of the jacket buttons lead the eye down to his seated pose, which is calm and straight-backed.

Meaning & Symbolism

Hospital stewards were enlisted medical men in the Union Army during the American Civil War, which ran from 1861 to 1865. They worked alongside surgeons, handled medicines and kept the wards running, so their place in a regiment was one of care rather than combat. The uniform marks that role, and the portrait records a man whose work kept soldiers alive. He is unidentified, but the record of his service survives in the picture.

On the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is tall and clear, so the picture is seen up close at the level of the eye as the drink is poured. The scalloped oval of the frame sits well against the glass's rounded sides, and the gilt case echoes the warm light of a pour. Lift it to the stewards who kept the wards running.

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.
