WV-3 1922 (Virginia) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

A Glimpse into Early West Virginia Roads

This pint glass design transports you back to 1922, the year West Virginia first established its numbered state road system. The artwork evokes the rudimentary, yet significant, signage of that era.

The Visuals: A Snapshot in Time

The design faithfully recreates a hypothesized WV-3 road sign from 1922, based on historical research. A simple rectangular shape, reminiscent of painted wooden or metal plates, forms the base.

The prominent numeral "3," rendered in a bold, straightforward typeface common for the time, dominates the design. Below the "3", the design features the letters β€œW.Va." indicating that this sign is in the state of West Virginia.

The design intentionally omits modern elements like reflective materials or standardized borders, emphasizing the rustic charm and historical accuracy of early road markings.

Meaning and Symbolism

This design serves as a visual ode to West Virginia's transportation history, recalling the origins of its road system. It honors the early pioneers who established and navigated these routes.

The minimalist aesthetic reflects the pragmatism and resourcefulness of the era, where function took precedence. It's a tribute to a simpler time when signs, though unadorned, guided travelers and connected communities.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” 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 / β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” 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.
