Alternate flag of FALINTIL Shot Glass 1.5oz

A striped flat-vector flag in black, blue, green, red and white, with a central shield, crossed suriks and a golden star, representing the 1987 FALINTIL alternate flag from East Timor.

Visual Elements & Composition

Black covers the largest share of the design and gives it a heavy, grounded presence. Blue, green, red and white are set in bands and panels that move across the field. At the centre, a shield carries crossed suriks, a spear and arrows, with a golden star above. A banner with the words "PATRIA POVO" sits within the composition, so the lettering is part of the emblem rather than a separate caption. The overall structure is busy and layered.

Meaning & Symbolism

FALINTIL was the armed resistance force of East Timor, and Xanana Gusmão, its leader, designed this alternate flag in 1987 at the Ai-Dila-Okir base. The blue, white and green tricolour carries the meanings set out in the design: blue for the sea and sky, white for peace and social justice, and green for the land of farmers and hope. The black, yellow and red are the traditional colours of the struggle. The golden star stands for the dawn of independence, and the suriks are traditional Timorese swords. The design was made to be non-partisan, and it remains a clear record of Timorese identity and the drive for sovereignty.

On the Shot Glass

On a shot glass the emblem is seen close and at a single glance, so the golden star and the shield draw the eye first. The stripes wrap the curve of the glass, and the banner lettering is read as the glass is turned in the hand. It is a serious piece for a home bar or a collection of historical pieces, and a compact way to keep a significant national symbol in view.

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.
