Coat of Arms of Dover District Council Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the vibrant and historically rich Coat of Arms of Dover District Council, a symbol of the district's deep connection to its maritime past and diverse heritage. The design is a carefully crafted tapestry of visual elements, each bearing symbolic weight.

The Arms: A Divided Shield

The central element of the design is the shield, "Per pale Gules and Azure" which means vertically divided into red (Gules) and blue (Azure). Dominating the center is a "fess wavy counterchanged" – a wavy band that alternates between the red and blue, representing the dynamic coastline and the meeting of land and sea.

The upper and lower sections feature a striking arrangement of golden (Or) elements: "two demi-lions passant guardant each conjoined to the hulk of a ship" and in the center the same configuration of "a like hulk conjoined to a demi-lion counter passant guardant." This design is a powerful visual representation of Dover's historic role within the Cinque Ports confederation, emphasizing its crucial maritime significance.

The Crest: A Symbol of Rural and Historic Heritage

Above the shield, the crest presents a "demi-horse Argent supporting a tower Or." The silver (Argent) demi-horse symbolizes the district's rural heritage, while the golden (Or) tower is a clear reference to the iconic Dover Castle, a significant landmark and a testament to the area's rich history.

Supporters: Embodying Naval History

Flanking the shield are two "sea horses Argent, gorged with a naval crown Or." These mythical creatures are further embellished with naval crowns, emphasizing the district's strong naval history and coastal identity. In their "fin of the interior foot" each sea horse grasps a "sword bendwise Argent, pommel, hilt, and quillons Or," further enhancing the symbolism of naval power and vigilance.

This complete design, a combination of heraldic precision and symbolic representation, creates a visually compelling and meaningful emblem that celebrates the history and identity of Dover District Council.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
