161e regiment dinfanterie - drapeau (France) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design renders the tricolour flag of the 161st Infantry Regiment of France, with seven battle honours inscribed across its vertical bands.

Visual Elements & Composition

Blue, white and red run in vertical bands, the classic French tricolour, forming the whole field. The lettering is set in capitals and reads down the standard in order: MAESTRICHT 1794, ARGONNE 1915, CHAMPAGNE 1915, VERDUN 1916-17, LA SOMME 1916, LA MARNE 1918 and LA MEUSE 1918. The design is clean and digital in its finish, with no ornament beyond the stripes and the inscriptions, so the honours are the focus.

Meaning & Symbolism

The regiment traces its lineage to the 161st demi-brigade formed in 1794, and the earliest honour, Maestricht in 1794, records that founding period. The 1915 and 1916 names mark the battles of the First World War in the Argonne, Champagne and along the Somme, and the 1918 entries record the final advance on the Marne and the Meuse. The unit was awarded the fourragère of the Médaille militaire, and that distinction stands behind the roll of names.

Held in the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the seven names are read at arm's length, much as a standard's honours were read by those who followed it. The tricolour bands wrap the curve of the glass, and the lettering comes round as the glass is turned. It suits anyone who studies French military history and values a regimental roll set out in full.

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.
