Banner of the Virginia Company (England) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A white field carrying a red St George's cross and a row of crowned royal shields, the heraldic banner of the English company that founded Jamestown.

Visual Elements & Composition

White covers most of the field, with red taking a third of the design and blue and gold as small accents. A red cross of St George runs across the white, and crowned shields of arms sit on the field, each carrying its own charge: a quartered shield with gold lions and fleurs-de-lis, a red lion rampant on gold, and a gold harp on blue. Gold crowns sit above each shield. The layout is formal and orderly, and the flat vector style gives every charge a crisp, solid outline.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Virginia Company was an English enterprise chartered by the crown, and it sponsored the first permanent English settlement in North America at Jamestown in 1607. The banner carried the royal arms of England, which tied the company to the monarchy and its charter under King James I. Banners of this kind were flown on ships, at trading posts and at company settlements, marking company property and asserting the rights granted under the charter. The St George's cross and the crowned shields make the banner a statement of royal authority at the start of English colonisation in the Americas.

Shot Glass Presentation

A shot glass is small and held close, so the shields and crowns are read at arm's length, one charge after another as the glass is turned. The strong white field and red cross stand out against the clear glass, and the compact size keeps the heraldry legible in a single view. On a home bar or a shelf of historical pieces, it serves as a conversation starter about the colonial voyages that began in 1607.

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.
