Bandeira de Machado - MG (Brazil) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This shot glass carries the flag of Machado, a municipality in Minas Gerais, Brazil, built on a broad blue field with a red triangular band and a heraldic shield at its centre.

Visual Elements & Composition

Blue dominates the design at around two-thirds of the surface, with white as the main secondary colour. A red triangular band sits centrally and gives the layout its strongest contrast. Over the field is a shield bearing a coat of arms, topped by a mural crown and set with motifs including crossed axes, a feather quill, a branch of leaves, a landscape of mountain and river, and a banner. Lettering appears in the design, including the name MACHADO and the dates 1852 and 1881, so the emblem combines text with image in a formal arrangement.

Meaning & Symbolism

The blue field stands for the sky over the municipality and for a sense of calm, while the red triangle echoes the state flag of Minas Gerais and places the town within that wider regional identity. The flag was designed by Ernesto Mariano Leite and officially adopted on 16 October 1972 through Resolution No. 3. Its heraldic elements, from the crown and shield to the axes, quill and landscape, record the town's history, values and culture, and the banner and dates anchor that history in time. The original flag is the municipality's own; this glass is an independent reproduction of its design.

In the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the blue field wraps the body of the glass and the shield comes into view as the glass is turned. The central red band is the first thing the eye reads when the glass is lifted, and the heraldic detail sits neatly within the reach of 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.
