Arms of the French Empire - Shot Glass 1.5oz

A symmetrical imperial crest in royal blue and gold, with a gold eagle of spread wings standing on a bundle above gold thunderbolts.

Visual Elements & Composition

Royal blue fills the pointed-base shield and dominates the design, while gold yellow draws every figure. The eagle is set at the centre with its wings spread wide, and it stands on a fasces-like bundle. Gold thunderbolts sit beneath it. The layout is strictly symmetrical, so the shield reads as one balanced emblem with no competing detail.

Meaning & Symbolism

The eagle is the emblem of imperial power, a sign of authority that the French state used in its nineteenth-century heraldry. The bundle beneath it recalls the Roman fasces, a symbol of civic command, and the thunderbolts stand for the force the empire could project. Together these figures give the crest its military and imperial character, dating the design to the early nineteenth century.

In the Hand, at Close Range

A shot glass is small and held close, so the eagle and thunderbolts come into view at arm's length as the glass is lifted. The gold figures against the deep blue stand out clearly at that scale, and the symmetry keeps the crest easy to read in a single glance.

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.
