Coat of Arms of Joseph II: A Miniature Imperial Display

This striking shot glass showcases the intricate and powerful coat of arms of Joseph II as King of the Romans, the designated heir to the Holy Roman Empire. The design is a miniature visual representation of his vast authority and dynastic lineage, a testament to the complex political landscape of 18th-century Europe.

A Shield of Territories and Titles

The central element is the shield, meticulously divided into quarters, each brimming with heraldic symbolism. The dominant quarters reveal Joseph II's claim to various territories. The shield presents: the silver lion of Bohemia, the red and silver stripes and double cross of Hungary, the white fess of Austria (the Habsburg ancestral territory), and the gold bend and blue bend sinister of Burgundy. This mosaic of heraldry underscores his role as ruler and heir of diverse lands.

Imperial Core and Regal Emblems

At the heart of the design, an inescutcheon, or central shield, prominently displays the red field with the white fess of the House of Habsburg. Above the shield sits the King of the Romans' crown, a specific closed crown signaling his role as heir apparent to the Holy Roman Emperor. Two majestic black imperial eagles, crowned and positioned as supporters, embody Germanic and imperial authority, completing this powerful display of dynastic and imperial claims.

Symbolism of Authority

Draped around the shield is the Order of the Golden Fleece, a collar that signifies his membership in this prestigious order and adds an additional layer of regal distinction. Elaborate mantling and ornamentation, including banners and regalia, frame the whole composition. The imagery is rich with symbolism and carefully arranged to emphasize the imperial authority within the Germanic lands of the Holy Roman Empire. This design encapsulates Joseph II's identity and ambitions, transforming this shot glass into a miniature work of heraldic art.

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.
