Coat of Arms of Darlington Borough Council Shot Glass

This shot glass proudly displays the official Coat of Arms of Darlington Borough Council, a rich tapestry of heraldic symbols reflecting the town's history and aspirations. The design, vibrant in its execution, immediately captures the eye with its intricate details and symbolic depth.

The Arms: A Divided Shield

The central element is the shield, "per pale Azure and Gules" – meaning divided vertically into blue (Azure) and red (Gules). Across this division runs a silver (Argent) chevron, emblazoned with a blue (Azure) "chevronel wavy." Above the chevron, on the blue field, sits St. Cuthbert's Cross, acknowledging the town's historical ties to the Northumbrian saint. Beside it, on the red field, is a Shorthorn bull's head, representing Darlington's agricultural heritage. Below the chevron, the base features a gold (Or) garb (wheat sheaf), further emphasizing the rural connection, entwined by a circlet of steel, a nod to the area's industrial past.

The chief of the shield (the upper section) showcases the iconic "Locomotion" steam engine, a tribute to Darlington's pivotal role in the birth of the railways.

Crest and Supporters: Symbols of Authority and Strength

Above the shield, the crest features two silver lions "rampant combatant," standing on a green (Vert) mount, emerging from a golden (Or) mural crown. The lions support a golden (Or) civic mace, a symbol of municipal authority.

Supporting the shield on either side are the heraldic supporters. On the right (dexter) stands a golden-crowned lion, symbolizing courage. On the left (sinister) a wyvern, a mythical winged dragon, holds a falchion (sword), its vigilance protecting the town's interests.

The Motto: Guiding Principle

The motto, "OPTIMA PETAMUS," Latin for "Let us seek the best," completes the visual narrative. This Coat of Arms, rendered on the shot glass, represents a comprehensive summary of Darlington's identity, history, and civic pride.

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.
