Boornsterhem wapen (Netherlands) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic design of the Boornsterhem wapen, the coat of arms once belonging to the Dutch municipality of Boornsterhem in Friesland. The design is a vibrant representation of the region's history and heritage.

Visual Elements and Composition

The central design is a shield divided into two distinct colors: a bold red (keel) and a verdant green (sinopel). Overlaying this divided field are two prominent, crossed keys. The keys are positioned diagonally, with their wards, or keyholes, pointing upwards towards each other, creating a focal point within the shield.

Above the crossed keys, a delicate cloverleaf (trefoil) is depicted. Below the keys, a "wasenaar," a heraldic figure resembling a rake, adds further detail and visual interest.

Crowning the shield is a golden crown. This crown features three elegant leaves and is adorned with pearls.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design elements of the coat of arms are laden with symbolic meaning. The keys, cloverleaf, and wasenaar are directly drawn from the coats of arms of the historical grietenijen (administrative regions) that formed Boornsterhem: Rauwerderhem, Utingeradeel, and Idaarderadeel. This signifies the unified heritage of these regions within the municipality.

The choice of red and green for the shield’s field is no accident. These colors represent the historic colors of Oostergo and Zevenwouden, the two ancient districts (gouwen) where Boornsterhem was geographically situated, grounding the design in the broader historical context of the area.

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.
