Arms of Sunderland City Council Pint Glass

This pint glass showcases the striking coat of arms of the City of Sunderland, a design rich in symbolism and historical significance.

The Shield

The central element is the shield, featuring a bold blue background. A wavy silver bar cuts across the shield, bisected by a smaller blue bar, representing the River Wear and Sunderland's deep maritime and shipbuilding history. At the top and bottom of the shield, a golden crown is prominently displayed, adorned with red saltires. The crown signifies the city status of Sunderland, while the saltires were originally designed to represent decades of service by Queen Elizabeth II at the time the coat of arms was granted.

The Crest

Above the shield sits the crest, a complex design. A golden and blue wreath supports the main image: a lymphad, or ancient ship, sailing across waves of blue and silver, referencing Sunderland's strong connection to the sea. The ship is adorned with flags displaying red crosses, reminiscent of St. Cuthbert, the patron saint, and the historical links to the Bishopric and County of Durham.

The Supporters

Flanking the shield are two heraldic lions, each unique in their depiction. The dexter (right) lion is golden, wearing a collar bearing wheat ears, alluding to the local agricultural connections, and the anchor it stands on shows the city's connection to the sea. The sinister (left) lion is blue and wears a red-fimbriated collar containing red stars, representing the city's industrial past. This lion stands atop a miner's pick, symbolizing the region's mining heritage.

Overall Design

The entire design tells a story of Sunderland's history, its ties to the sea, industry, agriculture, and the royal connections that shaped the city.

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.
