Virginia 197 (1980) Road Sign Shot Glass

A Classic Virginia Icon

This shot glass captures the essence of a bygone era in Virginia road signage. Its design meticulously recreates the look of a Virginia Primary State Route marker from 1980, a time when the state's highway system was rapidly evolving.

Design Elements: A Roadside Reminder

The artwork centers on the distinctive Virginia state highway shield. This iconic shape, with its arched top and pointed bottom, is immediately recognizable as a marker of the Commonwealth's roadways. A bold black outline frames the shield, providing a clear visual boundary.

At the top, the inscription "VIRGINIA" in uppercase lettering provides a clear geographic context. Below this, the large, bold numeral "197" signifies the specific route – a vital connector in the Richmond area. The color scheme is simple yet effective, with a white background and black text, offering high visibility and a timeless aesthetic.

Symbolism of the Design

The design represents a piece of Virginia's history and infrastructure. It's a tribute to the state's primary highway system and the role these routes played in connecting communities and facilitating growth. The sign is a symbol of navigation, accessibility, and the evolution of transportation in the Commonwealth. The image itself represents a specific location and context in Virginia's history, the 1980s. The clear and simple presentation mirrors the functional and informative nature of the original road sign.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
