Virginia 247 1980 (Virginia) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features the iconic design of the 1980 Virginia Route 247 road sign. It's a miniature representation of a piece of Virginia's transportation history, specifically within the City of Roanoke. The design is instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with Virginia's road system.

Visual Elements

The central element of the design is the distinct shape of the Virginia primary highway shield. This shape, with its pointed top and flat bottom, is a visual signature of Virginia's primary routes. A bold black border cleanly outlines the shield, providing a strong frame for the internal elements.

The upper portion of the design features the word "VIRGINIA" in small, uppercase black letters, arching across the top of the shield. This is the identifier, immediately establishing the location the route belongs to. Beneath this, the primary numerical designation, "247," is prominently displayed in a bold black font. The numeral is centered, creating a balanced and easily readable display.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design's symbolism is tied to transportation and local access. The shield shape and the "VIRGINIA" text are symbols of the state's infrastructure. The "247" represents a specific route, a connector that, in 1980, played a crucial role in directing traffic, including access to the Roanoke–Blacksburg Regional Airport. This sign design, therefore, represents not just a road, but also the ease of passage, and connection.

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.
