Virginia 172 1924 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass

Raise a toast to a piece of Virginia history with this unique shot glass, a miniature tribute to the Commonwealth's inaugural state route markers from 1924.

Design Inspiration: The 1924 Virginia Route Sign

The artwork faithfully recreates the distinctive design of the original 1924 Virginia Route 172 road sign. The most striking element is the iconic shape: a cutout precisely mirroring the outline of the state of Virginia itself.

Visual Elements: A Nod to the Past

The design adheres to the original color scheme: bold, black text on a crisp white background. "VIRGINIA" is elegantly inscribed in small, block letters, a classic typeface that evokes the era. The route number, "172", stands out in centered, bold black numerals, ensuring clear visibility.

Meaning and Symbolism: Celebrating Virginia's Heritage

This shot glass design encapsulates the pioneering spirit of Virginia's first road system. The state outline itself symbolizes a deep connection to the land and the Commonwealth's identity. The carefully recreated sign pays homage to a bygone era of road travel and the birth of Virginia's highway system, offering a visual journey back in time. It is a striking emblem of Virginia’s transportation legacy.

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.
