Blason Gérard Christophe Michel du Roc Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic artistry of Géraud Christophe Michel du Roc, the 1st duc de Frioul, a prominent figure in Napoleonic France. The design is a meticulous reproduction of his coat of arms (blason), reflecting his rank, military prowess, and lineage.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The central element of the design is the shield, which is divided into four quarters, each holding distinct symbols. The first and fourth quarters feature a golden field emblazoned with a red, three-towered castle. This castle represents fortitude, vigilance, and the strength of service. The second and third quarters display a blue field with a fully armored silver knight wielding a sabre, a clear testament to his martial valor and military command.

At the heart of the design, superimposed upon the quarters, is a central inescutcheon, a smaller shield. This shield features a green background with a golden rocky outcrop rising from the base, topped by a silver star. This element is adapted from his family's original arms and symbolizes his connection to his heritage.

Above the entire composition, the design incorporates the "chief des ducs de l’Empire," a special band at the top of the shield. This significant detail signifies his elevation to the title of Duke of Frioul by Napoleon, denoting his high rank within the Empire's nobility.

Visual Impact

The design utilizes a rich palette of colors, with gold, red, blue, green, and silver, creating a visually striking and historically significant representation. The meticulous detail of the castle, knight, rock, and star captures the elegance and symbolism characteristic of heraldry. This design encapsulates the life and achievements of the duc de Frioul, offering a glimpse into a time of great historical change and imperial grandeur.

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.
