COA of Beja (Portugal) Shot Glass 1.5oz - Design Description

This shot glass features the distinguished Coat of Arms (COA) of Beja, Portugal, a heraldic emblem rich with historical and symbolic meaning.

The Shield's Imagery

The central element is the shield (escudo), painted in vibrant gold (Or). At its heart is a powerful bull's head, facing forward (affronté) and rendered in black (Sable), highlighted with silver (Argent). This design celebrates the region's agricultural heritage, specifically its cattle production, symbolizing strength and resilience.

The top portion (chief) of the shield displays the iconic "quinas" of Portugal, a set of five small blue escutcheons, each bearing five silver bezants arranged in a saltire (St. Andrew’s cross). These "quinas" represent Beja's long-standing allegiance to the Portuguese Crown since its Christian reconquest.

Flanking the "quinas" are two black eagles displayed (wings spread), symbols of the city's Roman legacy, as Beja was known as Pax Iulia during Roman times.

The base (bottom) of the shield showcases a prominent red (Gules) castle, complete with silver (Argent) doors and windows. This represents the city's medieval fortifications, signifying defense, strength, and civic privileges.

Additional Elements

Crowning the shield is a silver mural crown with five visible towers, a mark of the city's official status in Portuguese heraldry.

Finally, a white scroll (listel) bearing the inscription "Cidade de Beja" in elegant black lettering completes the design, clearly identifying the city.

This meticulously crafted artwork on the shot glass presents a window into the history, economy, and allegiance of Beja, a lasting tribute to its rich heritage.

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.
