CHE Altnau COA (Switzerland) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the heraldic coat of arms (COA) of Altnau, a municipality in the Canton of Thurgau, Switzerland. The design prominently features a striking visual representation of the Altnau COA.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central design element is a cross that spans the entire surface of the glass. This cross is not a standard, solid shape; instead, it's a "gyronny cross," a stylized form composed of triangular segments. These segments alternate in color, creating a dynamic visual effect.

The background color is white (argent), providing a clean and crisp canvas for the cross. The cross itself is divided into sections of red (gules) and black (sable), creating a vibrant contrast.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design's colors and arrangement carry historical significance. The red segments of the cross represent Altnau's historical connections to the Domstift (Cathedral Chapter) of Constance, a link documented since the 12th century.

The black segments of the cross symbolize a later period in Altnau's history (from 1471) when the municipality fell under the bailiwick of the city of Constance.

This design, proposed in 1950, embodies the history and identity of Altnau in a visually compelling and historically rich form.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
