Coat of Arms of John Caspar Crowninshield Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass showcases the heraldic emblem attributed to John Caspar Crowninshield, a prominent figure in early American history. The design is a classic example of canting arms, a visual pun reflecting the family surname.

The Shield

The primary element is the shield, its field a rich Azure, or blue, providing a striking backdrop for the central charge. This blue field is a common color in heraldry, often symbolizing truth, loyalty, and strength.

The Charge: The Crown

The dominant element of the design is a Silver, or argent, crown. This crown is the visual pun, representing the "Crown" portion of the Crowninshield name. The use of silver, often associated with purity and peace, provides a strong contrast against the blue background, making the crown stand out prominently.

Symbolism and Meaning

The entire design serves to visually represent the Crowninshield surname. The crown alludes to a fabricated noble lineage, originating from the German village of Kronenschieldt, and adopted by Dr. Johannes Caspar Richter von Kronenscheldt. This coat of arms, therefore, signifies the family's connection to its name and its aspirations for prestige within early American society.

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.
