Great Coat of Arms of Congress Poland - Pint Glass 16oz

The Great Coat of Arms of Congress Poland, often abbreviated as Wielka Wstęga, is a historic heraldic symbol used by the Polish National Government during the Congress Poland period (1815-1918). This emblem represents the unity and sovereignty of the nation under foreign rule. The design includes an eagle with two heads, each crowned, holding a scepter and a globe in its talons, symbolizing diplomacy and global influence respectively. The shield at the eagle's chest is divided into four quarters: the Polish coat of arms (White Eagle), the Lithuanian coat of arms (Vytis), the Prussian black eagle, and the Royal Coat of Arms of Russia. The Great Coat of Arms was adopted on August 30, 1862, and is an essential piece of Polish political history.
