Blason Augustin Marie d'Aboville 1776-1843 (France) Shot Glass Design

Design Overview

This shot glass showcases the heraldic design, or "blason," of Augustin Marie d'Aboville, a Baron of the Empire under Napoleon I. The design is rich in symbolism and reflects his military status and allegiance to the French Empire.

Key Visual Elements

  • Field (Background): A deep purple background (purpure) provides a regal foundation, traditionally signifying sovereignty, justice, or royalty.
  • Central Charge: A prominent gold (or) castle, featuring two imposing towers. This represents strength, defense, and fortitude. The castle is meticulously rendered with black (sable) masonry, windows, and openings, emphasizing its robust structure.
  • Dexter Tower Detail: The tower on the viewer's left features a gold mast, topped with a green (sinople) pennant. This pennant bears the gold letters "N L G," an abbreviation for "Napoléon Le Grand," directly referencing Napoleon I and signifying loyalty to the Emperor.
  • Canton: A special canton (a small square in the corner) indicates the bearer's status as a military baron of the Empire, a mark of honor and distinction.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design tells a story of military service and loyalty. The castle's imagery of defense and strength, combined with the Imperial reference in the pennant, clearly conveys Augustin-Marie d'Aboville's role and honors within the Napoleonic era. The colors further add depth, as purple implies stature and authority.

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.
