43 Star US Flag (United States) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This flat vector shot glass carries the United States flag as it stood during the early 1890s, when its canton held 43 white stars.

Visual Elements & Composition

The design is built on the familiar rhythm of the national flag: horizontal stripes of red and white run the full width, and a navy blue canton sits in the upper corner. Against that deep blue, the white five-pointed stars are laid out in neat horizontal rows, so the eye reads the constellation as a single ordered field rather than scattered points. Red takes up the largest share of the artwork, with white and navy in close balance. There is no lettering or numerals, so the stars and stripes do all the work.

Meaning & Symbolism

Each star in a flag marks a state in the Union, so a 43-star pattern records a specific moment in the nation's growth. The flag of this count was in use for only a short stretch in the early 1890s, shortly after Idaho and Wyoming joined the Union, and it is a reminder that the emblem changed each time a new state was admitted. Collectors of vexillology and American heritage often treat these earlier flags as historical reference pieces, and this design keeps that record legible at a glance.

Holding the Story in Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the flag is seen at arm's length in a single glance and then up close as the glass is raised. The stars sit on a curved surface that turns in the light, which gives the constellation a quiet, almost medallion-like presence on the bar or shelf. It suits anyone who likes their barware to carry a piece of history.

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.
