Ballum Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design Details

This shot glass showcases the coat of arms (wapen) of Ballum, a village located on the Dutch island of Ameland. The design is a visual representation of Ballum's history and heritage, presented in a classic heraldic style.

Artwork Elements

The primary element is a majestic, gold (yellow) battlemented castle tower rising from a blue (azuur) field. The tower is the focal point, its architecture clearly defined. Notably, the design incorporates two open windows within the tower, revealing the blue background, which adds depth and visual interest.

Crowning the design at the top (chief) of the shield is a horizontal gold (yellow) band. This band elegantly displays a black horizontal comb, complete with teeth on both sides.

Symbolism and Meaning

The central tower is symbolic of the Cammingha Castle (Camminghaslot), once a prominent feature of Ballum. This represents the long-standing rule of the Van Cammingha family on Ameland.

The comb design is a direct reference to the coat of arms of the Van Cammingha family, reinforcing the connection to this influential lineage and their impact on Ballum’s history.

The color scheme of blue, gold (yellow), and black is drawn from the coat of arms of Ameland itself. These colours provide a sense of continuity and represent the location and its relationship with the area.

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.
