Coat of Arms of British Honduras Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms of British Honduras, a symbol rich in colonial history and economic significance. The artwork meticulously replicates the heraldic emblem used from 1907 until the country's renaming to Belize in 1973, and officially until 1981.

The Shield: A Division of Labor and Trade

The central element of the design is the shield, divided into three distinct sections. Two sections prominently display tools associated with the logging industry: a paddle and a squaring axe. These symbolize the core economic foundation of the colony, representing the labor of lumbermen and the importance of mahogany harvesting. The third section depicts a ship, a visual representation of commerce and maritime trade, acknowledging the colony's port-based nature and its reliance on shipping for economic growth.

Above and Beside the Shield: Unity and Prosperity

Above the shield, a mahogany tree is prominently featured, further emphasizing the significance of this valuable timber to the local economy. Supporting the shield on either side are two figures: a European settler holding a paddle and a man of African descent with an axe. This composition symbolizes the diverse labor forces that contributed to the colony's development and prosperity. The motto, "Sub Umbra Floreo," meaning "I flourish in the shade," is placed at the bottom, alluding to both the shade of the mahogany trees and the prosperity derived from the forestry industry.

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.
