War flag of the Imperial Japanese Army 1868-1945 (Japan) Pint Glass 16oz

This design reproduces the war flag of the Imperial Japanese Army, a sixteen-ray rising sun set on a plain white field, as it was used from 1868 to 1945.

Visual Elements & Composition

Two colours carry the whole design: a crimson disc and white ground, with nothing else on the surface. The red sun sits at the centre, and sixteen straight red rays radiate outward from it in an even sunburst. The flat, vector-clean shapes make the emblem read instantly, with the high contrast between red and white doing all the work. There is no text or numeral to compete with the sun.

Meaning & Symbolism

The red disc stands for the sun, and the rays for the nation's identity and power, which is why the emblem is often linked to the phrase "Land of the Rising Sun." The Meiji government officially adopted this flag as the army's war flag on 15 May 1870, and it remained the army's emblem through to 1945. Its bold, formal look reflects the military purpose it was built to express.

On the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is a tall, curved vessel that you hold close and turn as you work, so the sunburst is seen from every angle rather than from across a room. The rays fan around the walls as the glass is lifted and tilted, and the emblem stays in view throughout the mixing and pouring. Because the glass doubles as a serving glass, the sun stays on the surface right through to the last pour.

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.
