Coat of Arms of Gorodnya 1865 (Russia) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the heraldic design proposed for the town of Gorodnya in 1865, a relic of the Russian Empire's heraldic reforms.

Visual Elements and Composition

The central design is dominated by a red (gules) shield, providing a vibrant background for the principal charges. At the heart of the design rests a prominent gold anchor, a symbol of historical significance, likely rooted in Polish heraldic influences. Accompanying the anchor are three striking silver (white) eight-pointed stars, artfully arranged around the central anchor. These stars add an element of aspiration and guidance, enhancing the visual balance of the composition.

In the upper corner of the shield, a smaller inescutcheon presents the coat of arms of Chernigov Governorate, highlighting Gorodnya's administrative affiliation within the Russian Empire's provincial system.

Completing the design is a city crown atop the shield, signifying its civic status, and is embraced by two golden ears of grain tied with the Alexander Ribbon. This ribbon is a classic decorative element of the Russian Empire.

Meaning and Symbolism

The anchor, though Gorodnya is not a port city, suggests historical influence, possibly stemming from earlier seals or from the Radzic coat of arms from Polish heraldic influence. The stars symbolize lofty aspirations or guidance, lending an optimistic tone. The inclusion of the Governorate arms firmly establishes the town’s place within the governing structure of the Russian Empire.

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.
