Arms of Caroline Freeman College Otago Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the heraldic design of the Caroline Freeman College, a powerful visual representation steeped in symbolism. The design features a blue shield, reminiscent of the University of Otago's colors, providing a foundational backdrop.

Shield Elements

Dominating the shield is a gold, saltire-like shape, an X-shape echoing the college’s architectural design. Upon this gold shape are five six-pointed gold stars, one centrally placed with others at the saltire's arms, symbolizing a connection to the University of Otago's coat of arms. Centrally, a closed red book with gold edging sits prominently, further emphasizing the theme of learning and scholarship. The book's cover bears a six-pointed star, mirroring those on the saltire.

Above the shield, at its peak, is a red oil lamp, a traditional symbol of knowledge, directly referencing learning and academic pursuit. At the top of the shield are two "M" shapes, Roman numerals for 2000, which indicate the foundation year.

Symbolism and Meaning

The overall design represents Caroline Freeman College's values and history. The oil lamp represents knowledge and learning, tying directly to the college's namesake and historical connections. The lozenge-like shape suggests a tribute to the family arms, and recognizes Caroline Freeman's contributions as the first female graduate. The stars pay homage to the University of Otago. The heraldic design is a visual testament to the college's heritage and its enduring commitment to academic excellence.

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.
