Brantgum Wapens Shot Glass: A Miniature Coat of Arms

This shot glass showcases the intricate heraldic design of the Brantgum wapen, the official coat of arms of the village of Brantgum in Friesland, Netherlands. The design is a visual testament to the village's history and heritage, meticulously rendered on this small, collectible vessel.

The Escutcheon Unveiled

The central element of the design is the shield (or escutcheon), presented in a silver (white) field, bisected by a bold red diagonal band (or bend) sweeping from the upper left to the lower right. This band itself signifies the historical connection to the former Westdongeradeel municipality and the significant road that passes through the village.

Charges and Their Significance

Positioned on the red band, a golden (yellow) painter's brush points upwards, an homage to Ids Wiersma, Brantgum's most renowned painter. This artistic symbol, traditionally used to depict painters, pays tribute to his legacy.

Flanking the band are additional symbolic charges. To the left (heraldic sinister) is a red fleur-de-lis, originating from the coat of arms of the historic Rinnerda family. On the right (heraldic dexter), a red six-spoked wheel, also known as a Catherine wheel, representing the village church's patron saint, Saint Catherine.

Color and Heritage

The color palette of red and white echoes the colors of the Rinnerda family arms, underscoring the influence of this family on the historical and cultural design. The combined elements create a compelling visual narrative of Brantgum's unique identity.

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.
