Coat of arms of guatemala (1851-1858) - Frosted Pint Glass 16oz

This flat heraldic emblem sets a rising sun over green hills against a pedestal column dated to Guatemala's independence, with laurel branches and four arrows completing the design.

Visual Elements & Composition

A shield with a pointed base anchors the composition, and a pedestal column inscribed with the date rises beside the sun. The sun sits above a band of green hills, with four arrows crossing the lower field and laurel branches curving around the outside. Horizontal tricolour bands run through the shield, and the lettering "15 de Sept. de 1821" gives the column its date. Green leads the palette, with gold, deep blue, sky blue and red providing the accents. The forms are bold and symmetrical, so the emblem stays clear at a distance.

Meaning & Symbolism

The rising sun over hills is a familiar image of a country emerging into a new day, and the date 15 September 1821 marks the moment Guatemala declared its independence. The arrows stand for readiness to defend the nation, while the laurel branches signal victory and achievement. The column, a classic monument form, gives the date a sense of permanence. The emblem belongs to the 1851 to 1858 period, when this configuration of Guatemalan state iconography was in use, before the formal arms adopted in 1871.

Printed on a Frosted Pint

A pint glass wraps the shield and column around a tall, curved surface, so the sun and hills roll around the body of the glass as it is lifted. The frosted surface softens the greens and blues into a semi-translucent glow, and the dated column stays in view from whichever side of the glass faces the room.

Frosted pint glass (16 oz / ≈0.47 L) with a soft matte finish and semi-translucent, one-sided print. Tough enough for bar and restaurant use, dishwasher safe, and BPA-free — a modern take on classic pintware.

These pints are mouth-blown-style glass finished with a satin frost that mutes glare and gives art a soft, tactile presence. The print sits atop the frosted surface to create a semi-see-through effect — the look subtly shifts depending on lighting and what's poured inside.

Because the print is slightly translucent, pale drinks let more light through and darker pours create stronger contrast. That interplay gives each serving a small visual surprise — useful in hospitality settings or retail displays where the drink and the glass play off each other.

  • Material: 100% glass with a matte, frosted finish for a low-reflective, premium feel.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint, ≈0.47 L).
  • Print: one-sided wraparound, semi-translucent finish that changes with light and liquid.
  • Care: dishwasher-safe for everyday service (see Care tab for tips).
  • Use cases: retail shelves, bar service, event glassware, or merch racks — suitable for single units or larger orders.

These glasses work well for chilled beers, craft pours, iced cocktails and cold brew — anywhere you want an elegant, understated presentation. The frosted surface hides minor fingerprints and softens the silhouette of the drink inside.

  1. Serve: fill with cold beverages; the semi-translucent print will interact with the drink color for subtle variation.
  2. Display: stack or line them on back bar shelving where soft lighting emphasizes the frosted texture.
  3. Stocking: sell individually or as a set; their neutral look fits many menu styles and venue aesthetics.

Tip: if you plan themed pours (pale ales, lagers, dark stouts), test a sample to see how each drink’s hue changes the printed artwork’s visibility.

Dishwasher-safe for routine cleaning — use a standard household cycle and avoid very high-heat commercial programs when possible. Placing glasses mouth-down on the rack reduces risk of chipping during wash cycles.

For best longevity, hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive scouring pads and harsh chemical cleaners that can dull the frosted finish or wear printed areas over time.
