Arms of the University of Sussex Escutcheon Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the distinguished Arms of the University of Sussex, focusing on the escutcheon, or shield, of the coat of arms. The design is a vibrant representation of the university's heritage and identity, rendered with meticulous detail.

Visual Elements and Meaning

The central element of the design is the shield itself, a field of Argent (silver/white). Dominating the shield is a chevron, split vertically (per pale) into Azure (blue) and Gules (red). This chevron is charged with six martlets Or (six gold martlets), small stylized birds.

Above the chevron, in the "chief" (top) of the shield, are two Saxon crowns, also depicted in gold. At the base of the shield, in the "base" (bottom), a black dolphin naiant (swimming) completes the composition.

Symbolism

The design is rich in symbolism. The six martlets, a traditional emblem, represent East and West Sussex. The two Saxon crowns pay homage to the ancient Kingdom of the South Saxons, from which the county of Sussex derives its name. The black dolphin is borrowed from the arms of Brighton, reflecting a part of the university’s heritage.

The overall composition is a heraldic design, a visual narrative carefully crafted to represent the history and values of the University of Sussex.

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.
