159e regiment dinfanterie de ligne-drapeau (France) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design depicts the tricolour flag of the 159th Line Infantry Regiment of France, its battle mentions set in gold across the national colours.

Visual Elements & Composition

Vertical bands of blue, white and red carry the design, with gold lettering laid across them in capitals. The composition is formal and symmetrical, with the inscriptions forming the central interest. The six battle mentions read in order: EDENKOBEN 1794, ALSACE 1914, ARTOIS 1914-1915, PICARDIE 1918, LA MARNE 1918 and AFN 1952-1962. The gold stands out against the blue and red, and the white band keeps the flag light and easy to read.

Meaning & Symbolism

The earliest mention, Edenkoben in 1794, dates to the Revolutionary wars and shows the regiment's line going back to the early Republic. Alsace and Artois in 1914 and 1915 mark the opening battles of the First World War, and Picardie and La Marne in 1918 the closing campaigns. The AFN entry records the Algerian conflict. The unit was reconstituted in 1887 and adopted this standard in 1888, and the Croix de Guerre decorations on its colours recognise its service in both world wars.

Held in the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the gold mentions are read at arm's length, the way a regimental standard was followed by the eye of the men who served under it. The tricolour bands wrap the curve of the glass, and the lettering moves as the glass is turned. It is a good match for anyone who studies French military history and keeps an eye on the detail of a battle roll.

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.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. 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.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
