Blason et ornements ville fr Dunkerque-Empire Nord2 (France) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the majestic coat of arms of Dunkerque (Dunkirk), France, as it appeared during the First French Empire. The design is a visual feast of heraldic tradition and Napoleonic symbolism.

The Shield: A Divided Field

The shield itself is divided horizontally. The upper half, or "chief," presents a striking image: a gold (or) background dominated by a black lion, a classic symbol of Flanders, walking proudly, with its claws and tongue rendered in vibrant red. Overlaid on this is a "franc quartier," a smaller blue square, displaying a gold letter "N" (for Napoleon) topped with a radiant star – a clear indication of the Empire's influence.

The lower half, or "base," contrasts beautifully. Set against a silver (argent) field, a blue dolphin, a nod to Dunkerque's maritime heritage, is shown lying horizontally, its fins and other details painted in red.

Ornaments: Imperial Embellishments

Surrounding the shield are ornate embellishments. A mural crown, signifying the city, sits above the shield, further reinforcing its civic identity. Oak and olive branches, tied with elegant ribbons, frame the shield, typical of the decorative styles favored for municipal arms during the French Empire. These external ornaments create a sense of grandeur and historical context.

Symbolism: A Rich Tapestry

The design is rich in symbolism. The lion pays homage to Dunkerque's historic connections to Flanders. The dolphin is a testament to the city's maritime roots and fishing traditions, a visual connection to the sea. The inclusion of the "N" and star is a direct link to the Napoleonic era, transforming the arms into an enduring piece of historical art.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
