Zeichen 274-100 - Zulässige Höchstgeschwindigkeit StVO 2017 (Germany) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design reproduces Zeichen 274-100, the German road sign that sets a maximum permitted speed of 100 km/h.
Visual Elements & Composition
A thick red ring encloses a white disc, and the black numeral 100 sits centred within it. Red dominates the palette at roughly 40 percent, white follows at about 35 percent, and black accounts for the numeral and its edges. The layout is circular, flat and minimal, with nothing competing for attention. Every element is built for instant legibility at a glance, from a moving car or across a room.
Meaning & Symbolism
The sign is defined by the Straßenverkehrs-Ordnung (StVO), Germany's road traffic regulations, and it is a regulatory signal rather than a warning. The red ring marks a restriction, and the numeral states the exact limit: 100 km/h. The modern visual style reflects the sign's purpose, which is to communicate a legal requirement clearly and without ambiguity. The result is authoritative and functional, with no decoration beyond what the message needs.
Built for a Shot Glass
A shot glass is small and held close, so this sign is read at arm's length, with the numeral coming into focus as the glass is lifted. The circular ring of the sign echoes the round rim of the glass, so the artwork and the object share the same shape. It is a cheeky nod for anyone who has ever argued about a speed limit, and a sharp, serious-looking reminder to keep the pace sensible on the way home.

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.
- Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
- Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
- 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.
