Virginia 160 1924 Shot Glass

Step back in time with the Virginia 160 1924 shot glass, a tribute to the earliest days of Virginia's numbered highway system. The design faithfully recreates the look of the state's very first road signs, born in 1924.

A Slice of History

The artwork centers around a crisp, clean design: a white circular or keystone-shaped cutout, edged with a bold black outline, mirroring the utilitarian aesthetic of the era. The form itself embodies the simplicity and directness of early 20th-century road signage, when functionality trumped flourish.

The Elements of the Road

Arching across the top in bold, uppercase black letters, "VIRGINIA" proudly proclaims the state. The number "160," rendered in similarly striking black numerals, occupies the center. This stark, uncluttered placement highlights the route's identity, a direct communication of its purpose: to guide travelers across the nascent highway network.

Symbolism of the Journey

More than just a number, "160" represents a significant moment in Virginia's transportation history. It's a relic of a time before the iconic triangle shield, representing the start of Virginia's organized road numbering. It embodies the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized early automobile travel, where simple signs guided the way.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
