Arms of Balfour of Glenawley Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of the Baron Balfour of Glenawley, a heraldic design rich in history and symbolism.

Design Elements and Meaning

The central element is the shield, or escutcheon. The background is **Argent**, represented as a silver or white field. Across the center lies a **chevron sable**, a black inverted "V" shape, upon which rests the primary charge.

The primary charge is an **otter's head erased** of the first (silver/white). The "erased" detail indicates a jagged edge where the head is severed, symbolizing a noble distinction. The otter, here in the same color as the field, stands out against the dark chevron, suggesting the importance of this emblem.

Below the chevron, in the base of the shield, is a **saltire couped sable**. This is a black diagonal cross (St. Andrew’s Cross) cut short, not reaching the edges of the shield. The saltire is a common heraldic symbol with a sense of stability and faith.

Overall Impression

The design balances simplicity and elegance, using contrasting colors and distinctive symbols. The combination of the otter's head, chevron, and saltire creates a unique visual identity, representing the specific lineage of the Balfour of Glenawley barony and conveying a sense of heritage.

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.
