BandMercante1785 (Spain) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Four horizontal stripes alternate between golden yellow and red in this flat, graphic design that takes its name from the 1785 Spanish merchant flag.

Visual Elements & Composition

The layout is a rectangle divided into four equal horizontal stripes, running yellow, red, yellow and red from top to bottom. Golden yellow covers a little over half the field and sets the tone, while the red stripes provide a strong counterpoint. The edges between the bands are sharp and even, and the flat vector finish keeps the rhythm clean. The design has no emblem, text or numerals, so the stripes carry the entire image.

Meaning & Symbolism

Horizontal red and yellow bands are the colours associated with Spanish maritime and commercial flags, and the name of the design points to the merchant flag of 1785. Striped flags of this kind signalled a ship's trade and its place of origin. The design brings a sense of 18th-century commerce and seafaring into a simple, modern form.

Shaped for the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the stripes suit its slim shape well. The bands wrap the straight walls in a steady rhythm, and each stripe stays visible from the rim to the base. It is a neat way to bring a historic Spanish flag to the table for a toast.

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.
