Castleford Coat of Arms Shot Glass - Design Details

This shot glass proudly displays the official coat of arms of Castleford, a town steeped in history in West Yorkshire, England. The design, granted in 1869, is a vibrant tapestry of symbolic elements representing the town's heritage and identity.

Arms: A Fortress and the River

The central element of the design is a triple-towered castle, rendered in gold (Or), which immediately references Castleford's name, signifying a fort near a ford. The castle stands proudly above a wavy, horizontal band of blue and white, representing the River Aire, a crucial waterway that flows through the town.

Roses and Regional Ties

In the upper portion of the shield, two silver roses (argent), complete with their natural barbs and seeds (proper), are prominently displayed. These roses are a direct nod to Castleford's location within the West Riding of Yorkshire, acknowledging its regional affiliation.

Crest: Eagle of Roman and Mining Heritage

The crest, positioned above the shield, features a golden (Or) demi-eagle, a symbol that hints at Castleford’s Roman roots and coal mining industry. The eagle is distinguished by a red collar (gules), from which hangs a miner’s lamp, emphasizing the town's coal mining heritage. On each of the eagle's wings is a black lacy knot, a subtle homage to the Lacy family, who once held lordship over the area.

Motto: Bold and Frank

While not visually depicted, the motto "Audacter et Sincere" ("Boldly and frankly") is an integral part of the overall design, capturing the spirit of Castleford.

This meticulously crafted design on the shot glass provides a miniature history lesson, bringing the rich symbolism of Castleford to life.

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.
