Signboard Expedition Classic 143 Shot Beer Glass Retro

《 Signboard Expedition Team 》 U.I.J teamed up with local Tainan illustrator Tang Shih-Hsien to collect street signboards from Tainan's old town. Through field research and graphic documentation, we delve deep into the stories behind these vintage signs. While some still stand tall against the test of time, others have gradually faded away, losing their former glory. Through this project and its merchandise, follow us and become a walking character of old Tainan's signboards! W Glass Project, dedicated to promoting "green energy glass," recycles and remanufactures waste glass to give it a new lease on life. This vision perfectly aligns with U.I.J, a brand that continuously promotes sustainable, eco-friendly, and tasteful living. Together, we have co-created this authentic and classic 143ml beer glass. | Why choose the classic 143ml shot beer glass? | In the 1940s, due to the war, beer brewing decreased sharply, leading to a shortage of local alcohol in Taiwan. To adjust alcohol consumption, the Monopoly Bureau shrank the size of beer glasses as much as possible, creating a glass with a capacity of exactly 143 milliliters. One regular bottle of beer can pour exactly six of these small glasses. This symbolizes the hospitable nature of the hardworking Taiwanese people, who never forgot to share with others even in difficult environments, fully reflecting Taiwan's warm local customs and culture. | 6 Signboard Designs Related to Local Drinks | ✨ The alley's "Youai Breakfast" and the liver-heat-reducing "Herbal Tea" ✨ Old-school hand-shaken "Foam Black Tea" and the persistent "Papaya Milk" blended from old papaya trees ✨ The seasonal must-drink "Natural Juice" and the "Mouth" from a dentist's signboard, symbolizing the love for eating and drinking / Material: W Glass Project _ Sustainable Glass / Capacity: 143 ml
