Coat of Arms of John C. Calhoun Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass features the heraldic design of John C. Calhoun, the 7th Vice President of the United States. The artwork showcases a visually striking and historically significant emblem.

The Shield

At the heart of the design is the shield, the central element of the coat of arms. It is divided by a black, wavy-edged cross known as a "saltire engrailed." This saltire is set against a silver (Argent) background, creating a bold contrast that draws the eye. The saltire's wavy edges add a dynamic feel to the otherwise static design.

The Crest

Above the shield, the crest is depicted. It presents a stylized hart's head (deer) that is "couped" or cut off. The hart's head is a vibrant red (Gules), with its antlers ("attired") rendered in silver (Argent). The hart's head symbolizes strength and nobility.

The Supporters

Flanking the shield are two "ratch-hounds," slender hunting dogs, rendered in silver (Argent). The hounds are collared in black (Sable), providing definition. They symbolize loyalty and protection.

The Motto

Completing the design is the motto, "Si je puis," translated from French as "If I may." This phrase reflects an aspiration of action and perhaps humility in achieving it.

The overall design is a sophisticated and historically rich piece of heraldry, offering both visual appeal and insight into the historical context of John C. Calhoun and his family lineage.

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.
