Buttigliera d'Asti - Stemma (Italy) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic Coat of Arms, or Stemma, of Buttigliera d'Asti, a municipality in the Piedmont region of Italy. The design is a striking representation of the town's identity, rooted in centuries of tradition.

Design Elements & Representation

The primary visual element is the distinctive shield, rendered in a deep purple-red hue known as "porpora." This rich color serves as the backdrop for the central emblem: two "scorciate" crosses in argent (silver/white). These crosses, characterized by their truncated ends, are arranged vertically, one atop the other, in a classic heraldic arrangement known as "in palo." The design is a direct representation of the formal blazon: "Di porpora, alle due croci scorciate d’argento poste una sull’altra" (On a purple field, two truncated silver crosses placed one above the other).

Symbolism & Meaning

While the precise symbolic meaning of the specific elements in the Buttigliera d'Asti coat of arms is not extensively documented in this context, the design embodies the essence of civic pride and local heritage. The crosses, prominent in their placement, likely signify religious significance or historical events. The bold color choice, a deep purple-red, adds to the impact of the design and evokes a sense of history and the traditions of the region.

The presence of this design on the shot glass provides a tangible connection to the history and identity of Buttigliera d'Asti, making it a beautiful display of local symbolism.

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.
