Brasão de Macau 1850s-1910 (Portugal) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic "Brasão de Macau" (Coat of Arms) used in Macau during its period as a Portuguese territory, roughly between the 1850s and 1910s. The design is a vibrant representation of Macau's historical ties to Portugal.

Visual Elements

At the heart of the design lies the core heraldic symbol of Portugal: the shield featuring the iconic five blue shields ("quinas"), each adorned with silver bezants (roundels). This element immediately establishes the connection between Macau and the Portuguese realm.

The design also incorporates the inscription: "Cidade do nome de Deus, não há outra mais leal," which translates to "City of the Name of God, there is no other more loyal." This motto, often surrounding the shield, speaks to Macau's historical loyalty to Portugal during the colonial period.

Meaning & Symbolism

The use of the Portuguese shield signifies Macau's status as a Portuguese-controlled territory. The "quinas" represent Portugal itself, embedding Macau's identity within the broader Portuguese empire.

The motto further reinforces this connection, emphasizing Macau's allegiance. Such inscriptions were a common practice in Portuguese colonial heraldry, solidifying the relationship between the colony and the Portuguese crown.

This design serves as a visual reminder of Macau's rich history and its historical role within the Portuguese colonial context, a compelling emblem of a bygone era.

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.
