Coat of Arms of John Custis (United States) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases a distinguished heraldic design, representing the Coat of Arms associated with John Custis of Virginia, a figure of significance in early American history.

The Shield: A Silver Canvas of Heritage

The central element of the design is the shield, its surface rendered argent, or silver. This color traditionally symbolizes purity, peace, and sincerity. Upon this field are displayed three popinjays, or parrots, in vibrant vert, or green. The green hue signifies hope, joy, and the burgeoning life of the colonies. The popinjays themselves are a visual representation of the family's presence within the Americas, and their position is a representation of the standing of the Custis family.

The Crest: An Archer of Purpose

Above the shield, the crest offers a detailed depiction of an archer, rendered proper, in natural colors. The archer is attired in a green coat, mirroring the green of the parrots on the shield, and is engaged in the act of drawing a bow of the same hue. The archer symbolizes vigilance, readiness, and a forward-looking attitude, reflecting the Custis family's commitment to their endeavors.

The shot glass’ design directly draws upon historical records and scholarly interpretations, offering a glimpse into the visual language of lineage and the aspirations of a prominent colonial American family.

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.
