Coat of Arms of John of Gaunt Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the heraldic arms of John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster, as a claimant to the Crown of Castile, a visual testament to his ambitions and marriage to Constance of Castile in 1371. The design is a powerful display of European royal lineage, meticulously rendered to reflect historical accuracy and heraldic tradition.

Impaled Arms: A Royal Union

The design features "impaled" arms, a heraldic practice of combining two different coats of arms side-by-side on a single shield. This signifies John of Gaunt's dual claim and demonstrates his lineage and ambitions. The left side (dexter) of the shield, as viewed, showcases the elements of the Castilian royal arms. These quarters are emblematic of the Kingdom of Castile and embody its power.

Castile and León: A Kingdom's Emblem

The first and fourth quarters display the iconic emblem of Castile: a gold, triple-towered castle on a red field (Gules). These castles symbolize the fortifications and power of the Castilian realm. The second and third quarters present the symbol of León: a rampant purple lion (purpure) on a silver (Argent) background. These lions are symbols of courage, royalty, and the strength of the Leonese monarchy.

England's Royal Son: A Mark of Lineage

The right side (sinister) of the impaled arms bears the royal arms of England, a representation of John of Gaunt’s English ancestry. These arms are differentiated by a label of three points ermine, a classic heraldic mark. This label indicates his status as a son of the reigning monarch, signifying his relationship to the crown.

The overall composition of this coat of arms is a bold statement of family, royal claim, and the intertwining of English and Spanish heritage. It's a striking visual representation of a historical claim to the Castilian throne.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
