1987-1992 Flag of Afghan Army (Afghanistan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This shot glass takes its design from the military emblem used by the Afghan Army between 1987 and 1992, set in a bold royal blue field.

Visual Elements & Composition

Royal blue covers most of the design, giving it a strong, formal presence. At its centre sits a white roundel with a sword crossed over two rifles, framed by a gold wheat wreath. A dark red five-pointed star rises above the roundel, and a small emblem in the top-right corner shows a sunrise over a green hill. The shapes are flat and vector-clean, and the palette stays limited to blue, white, gold and red.

Meaning & Symbolism

The sword and rifles speak to the army's role in defence, while the wheat wreath points to agriculture and the land. The red star and sunrise are common signs of national identity in emblems of this kind. The composition records the institutional symbolism of the Afghan military during a specific five-year span of the late twentieth century, when this insignia defined the armed forces of the period.

Seen at Close Range

A shot glass is small and held close to the eye, so the roundel and wreath are taken in at a glance as the glass is lifted. The clear sides let the blue field show against the drink, and the sunrise emblem in the corner becomes a detail to find once the glass is in hand.

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.
