Armas de la ciudad de México 1767 (Costa Rica) Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the "Armas de la ciudad de México 1767," a historical coat of arms representing Mexico City during the colonial era. The artwork is rich with symbolism, offering a glimpse into the city's past.

Visual Elements and Symbolism

The central element is a blue shield, or "azure," representing the vast lagoon upon which Mexico City was built. At the heart of the design stands a golden castle, signifying strength and the city's core. Three bridges, also depicted in golden tones, lead towards the castle, hinting at pathways and connectivity.

Two golden lions flank the bridges, reaching towards the castle. These powerful creatures symbolize conquest and victory, reflecting the colonial context. Surrounding the shield's border, or "orla," are ten green pads of prickly-pear cactus, complete with their spines. This element represents the original native lordships and the unique geography of the region.

The design as a whole paints a picture of a city built on water, fortified by conquest, and connected to its history through the indigenous landscape.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
