Amstelveen Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features the striking coat of arms of Amstelveen, a municipality in the Netherlands, a symbol rich in history and heraldic meaning. The design centers around a shield (escutcheon) of vibrant red (gules) - a color traditionally representing courage and zeal.

Key Visual Elements

Two horizontal black bars (fascæ sable) bisect the red field of the shield. This creates a bold contrast and forms the primary structure of the design. Upon these black bars are the defining elements: silver (argent) St. Andrew's crosses (sautoirs), also known as saltires, which are diagonal crosses.

There are four crosses in total. The top black bar holds three crosses, while the bottom bar features a single cross. This distinct arrangement is evocative of Amsterdam’s heraldry, reflecting shared historical roots, albeit with a different configuration of crosses.

Symbolism and Interpretation

The Amstelveen coat of arms carries significant symbolic weight. Red can symbolize courage. Black, known as sable in heraldry, often represents devotion and constancy. The silver (argent) crosses suggest innocence and joy.

The design, derived from the medieval Persijn family, is a "puzzle coat of arms" in heraldic terms. Despite not adhering to all strict color rules, it has become historically established as the official symbol of Amstelveen.

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.
