Greyerz Gruyère Family Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the distinguished coat of arms of the House of Gruyère, a prominent noble family from Switzerland, also known as the House of Greyerz. The design is a direct representation of their heraldic emblem, a striking visual statement steeped in history and symbolism.

Shield & Crane: The Primary Elements

The core of the design is the heraldic shield, rendered in a bold red (gules) background. Upon this vibrant field, a silver (argent) crane is depicted in a walking pose (passant). This elegant bird is the central focus, visually dominant and immediately recognizable.

Symbolism & Meaning

The crane holds significant meaning within the context of the Gruyère family. The crane's presence directly alludes to the origin of the family name, and the founding of the town of Gruyères, according to local legend. It reflects the family's deep connection to the region and its history. The crane against the red background creates a strong visual impact, making the coat of arms instantly memorable.

Visual Style

The design adheres to the principles of heraldry, with clear and simple forms. The bold use of color and the elegant pose of the crane create a design that is both visually striking and historically significant. The artwork effectively captures the essence of the Gruyère family's legacy through a concise and impactful visual representation.

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.
