Virginia 176 1924 (Road Sign) Pint Glass

This pint glass pays homage to the very first generation of Virginia state highway signage, specifically the design used in 1924 for Route 176. It captures the essence of early 20th-century road travel and the birth of modern highway systems.

Design Elements

The artwork replicates the historical road sign. A bold, circular design forms the base. The glass features a stark contrast, mirroring the original sign's use of black and white for maximum legibility. A thick black ring frames the design, creating a strong visual border.

Curving across the top of the design is the word "VIRGINIA", rendered in bold black block letters, clearly identifying the state. Centered within the circle is the route number "176", also in bold black numerals. The simplicity of the design reflects the era's focus on clear and direct communication, essential for guiding early motorists.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a significant piece of Virginia's transportation history. It's a symbol of early road development and the evolution of highway infrastructure. The round shape and bold typography evoke a sense of heritage and the pioneering spirit of early automobile travel.

The black-on-white color scheme, while purely functional in its original intent, also conveys a sense of classic Americana and a connection to a bygone era. The sign's presence on the glass serves as a reminder of the historical origins of Virginia's roads and the journeys undertaken on them.

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.
