Virginia 235 (1980) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features the classic design of a 1980s Virginia Primary Route road sign, specifically representing Virginia Route 235. The artwork evokes a sense of historical context and place, reflecting the era and the specific road.

Visual Elements

The design faithfully recreates the Virginia primary route shield. The distinctive shape, with its flat bottom, squared shoulders, and pointed top, immediately identifies the sign's origin. A thick, black border outlines the shield, providing a clear definition of the sign's edge.

At the top of the design, the word "VIRGINIA" is rendered in small, uppercase black letters. This element confirms the geographical context, situating the sign within the Commonwealth of Virginia. Beneath, the bold black numerals "235" are centered, clearly indicating the specific route number.

Meaning and Symbolism

The road sign design symbolizes the historical significance of Route 235, a primary connector to George Washington's Mount Vernon estate. The stark black and white color scheme, with its reflective qualities, speaks to the practical function of road signage: providing clear guidance to drivers.

This design is a visual shorthand for a specific place and time. The 1980s aesthetic, with its established road sign standards, evokes a sense of nostalgia for a simpler era of travel and exploration within Virginia's history.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
