Brasão de Mira (Portugal) Shot Glass - Design Description

Visual Overview

This shot glass showcases the official Coat of Arms (Brasão) of Mira, Portugal. The design prominently features elements of Portuguese heraldry, meticulously reproduced to represent the town's history and character.

The Shield's Imagery

The central design, or shield (Escudo), is presented against a stark black (sable) background. Dominating this field is a golden (Or) sheaf of maize (corn) ears, bound together. This represents the historical and ongoing significance of agriculture to Mira's economy and the livelihoods of its people.

Border Details

Framing the central imagery is a green (vert) border, which is adorned with eight golden (Or) scallop shells. These shells are symbolic of Mira's coastal location, alluding to maritime activities and traditions, and potentially referencing pilgrimage traditions.

Crowning Achievement

At the top of the design, we find a silver (argent) mural crown. This crown, with its four visible towers, signifies Mira's status as a town (vila) according to Portuguese heraldic conventions.

Insignia

Beneath the shield, a white (argent) scroll (listel) bears the inscription "VILA DE MIRA" in black letters, clearly identifying the municipality.

Symbolic Meaning

The artwork, as a whole, elegantly blends symbols of Mira's heritage. The maize sheaf pays tribute to agriculture, while the shells acknowledge the town's connection to the sea. The mural crown signals the town's administrative standing, creating a design that is both historically informative and aesthetically appealing.

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.
