Borås Kommunvapen Shot Glass - Design Overview

Visual Representation

This shot glass showcases the official coat of arms, or "Kommunvapen," of Borås Municipality in Sweden. The design is presented as a vector graphic, originally sourced from the Riksarkivet (National Archives of Sweden).

Heraldic Elements and Symbolism

The central element of the design is a shield featuring a vibrant red background. Within this field, the artwork depicts two silver (white) wool shears. The shears are a direct reference to Borås's historical roots as a prominent textile town.

One of the shears is inverted, a specific heraldic detail known as "störtad." This unique arrangement and the overall heraldic design adheres to the strict guidelines governing Swedish municipal coat of arms.

Meaning and Significance

The design speaks volumes about Borås's identity. The wool shears are symbolic of the city's important past, representing the crucial wool and cloth industries that helped shape its history and prosperity. The coat of arms serves as a visual embodiment of the community and its heritage.

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.
