CHE Altdorf COA (Switzerland) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic Coat of Arms of Altdorf, the capital of the canton of Uri in Switzerland. The design is a vibrant representation of the municipality's rich history and significant events.

Visual Elements and Their Meaning

The design is a striking split composition. The left half of the shield features a brilliant golden background (or) emblazoned with a majestic black eagle (sable) with its wings fully displayed. This eagle emerges from the left side, symbolizing Altdorf's historical ties to the Holy Roman Empire, a symbol of authority and imperial affiliation.

The right half presents a field of bold red (gules), bisected by two elegant silver (argent) diagonal stripes, known as bendlets sinister. These stripes commemorate the devastating fires that ravaged the village in 1400, 1693, and 1799. The stripes stand as a memorial to these events, which shaped Altdorf's destiny.

The combination of these elements creates a unique and compelling visual statement. The dynamic eagle and the striking stripes blend historical context with a powerful design that conveys a sense of identity and legacy.

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.
