19th century Faroese flag 3-2 Shot Glass 1.5oz

This shot glass carries a historical reproduction of an unofficial Faroese banner from the 19th century, drawn as a flat, bold field of colour in a 3:2 proportion.

Visual Elements & Composition

Red takes up the largest share of the design, with blue, grey and a small amount of yellow sitting against it. The layout is simple and heraldic: a rectangular field with a single central figure, so the eye lands on the image before anything else. The palette reads as strong and graphic, with no ornament competing for attention.

Meaning & Symbolism

Banners like this were raised at public gatherings during the Faroe Islands' national awakening, long before the islands had a flag of their own. Designs of the period leaned on local emblems of identity, most often the Faroese ram (Veðrur), a long-standing symbol of the islands' heritage, or the Tjaldur, the Eurasian Oystercatcher and the national bird. The official Nordic cross flag, Merkið, was not established until 1919, so these earlier banners mark the years when the Faroese were asserting their identity in public.

Printed on a Glass Built for a Single Pour

A shot glass is small and held close, so the design is seen at near range, one quick glance at a time. The flat, high-contrast colours suit a surface this compact, and the image wraps the full circumference of the glass for a view from any side at the table.

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.
