Coat of Arms of James Birnie Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases the historic Coat of Arms of James Birnie, a pioneer of the Pacific Northwest. The design is a powerful statement of heritage, echoing the Scottish origins of the Birnie family.

The Shield

The central element of the design is the shield, the focal point of the coat of arms. It is "Gules" (red), providing a bold backdrop for the other elements. A "fess Argent" (a silver horizontal band) crosses the center of the shield, visually dividing it. Above the fess, in the "chief" (top section), is a bow and arrow in full draught, signifying readiness and perhaps a connection to skill in marksmanship or hunting. Below the fess, in the "base" (bottom section), are three silver "legs couped at the thigh paleways," meaning three silver legs cut off at the thigh, arranged vertically. These legs represent swiftness and fortitude.

The Crest

Above the shield, the crest features a lion's head "erased proper." The term "erased" means the head is torn roughly from the body, and "proper" indicates that the lion's head is rendered in its natural colors. The lion is a symbol of courage, strength, and royalty, while the torn depiction can also suggest a history of sacrifice or resilience.

Overall Meaning

This coat of arms encapsulates the historical narrative of the Birnie family, representing their legacy of achievement and their Scottish roots. The design elements offer a glimpse into the family's past, and a unique way to celebrate that heritage.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
