Civil Ensign of Jamaica 1906-1957 (Jamaica) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design shows the Jamaican civil ensign of 1906 to 1957, built on the classic blue ensign layout with a colonial badge in the fly.

Visual Elements & Composition

A deep blue field forms the ground of the flag, with the Union Jack set in the upper hoist corner as the canton. In the fly sits a roundel-shaped badge, its shield showing a red cross charged with five golden pineapples and flanked by two figures in the heraldic style of the early twentieth century. Navy, white, red and gold give the design a formal palette, and the lines are clean and precise, with the badge standing out as the focal point.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Union Jack in the canton marks Jamaica's ties to the United Kingdom, and the blue ensign pattern signals a flag flown by vessels under the colonial administration. The shield's red cross and golden pineapples are the traditional arms of the island, and the pineapples in particular are the best-known emblem of Jamaica's heritage. The flag is a document of the colonial era, and its history runs from the early twentieth century to 1957, when the design was superseded.

Held Close in the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the badge and canton are seen at near range, the way a colonial ensign is read on a ship's staff or a harbour wall. The blue field gives the glass a deep, quiet tone, and the golden pineapples catch the light within the straight-sided tumbler. It is a fitting piece for a home bar, a maritime collection or a shelf of Caribbean history.

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.
