1821 Flag of Hydra (Greece) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Royal blue fills most of this banner, with a silver cross, an anchor, a dove and a spear at its heart, all framed by a red border and a Greek inscription that dates the flag to 1821.

Visual Elements & Composition

Royal blue dominates, covering roughly three quarters of the field, with light grey and a touch of red providing the contrast. The emblem is centred within a rectangular panel bordered in red, and its figures are arranged around a shield-like base: a silver Latin cross, an anchor entwined with a serpent, a dove in flight, and a spear carrying a red pennant. The Greek lettering runs along a banner in the design, and the numeral 1821 sits within it. The flat vector treatment keeps every element clean and separate.

Meaning & Symbolism

Hydra was a seafaring island, and its flag brings together the maritime and the military. The anchor speaks to the island's shipping and the fleets its sailors manned during the Greek War of Independence, while the cross marks the Orthodox faith that united the insurgents. The dove signals peace and the spear with its pennant signals the fight, so the emblem holds both aims of the struggle in one place. The flag belongs to the year 1821, when the revolution began.

Made for the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the emblem is seen at eye level as the glass is raised. The bold blue field carries the eye straight to the central cross and anchor, and the red border frames the whole image neatly within the curve of the glass.

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.
