Coat of Arms of the Straits Settlements Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate heraldry of the Coat of Arms of the Straits Settlements, a visual testament to the region's history under British colonial rule. The design is meticulously crafted to replicate the original armorial device granted in 1911.

The Shield: A Quartered Story

The shield, the central element, is divided into four distinct quarters, each representing a crucial part of the Straits Settlements:

  • First Quarter (Top Left): A bold red (gules) background bears a tower with a lion passant guardant. This symbolizes Singapore, the major settlement and strategic port, with the lion representing strength and dominion.
  • Second Quarter (Top Right): A silver (argent) field features an areca nut palm tree, a visual cue representing Penang, its name derived from the Malay word for this tree.
  • Third Quarter (Bottom Left): Also against a silver (argent) background, a sprig of the oil tree keruing is displayed, serving as a symbolic reference to Malacca, and reflecting the area's natural resources.
  • Fourth Quarter (Bottom Right): The final quarter portrays a sea scene (azure with waves) depicting the sun rising behind a mountain, with a sailing yacht navigating the waters. This represents Labuan, and the significance of maritime trade to the region.

The Crest: Symbol of Authority

Above the shield rests the crest, a demi-lion rampant guardant, its upper half rising and facing the viewer. The lion holds a staff from which a blue banner unfurls, emblazoned with three imperial crowns. This symbolizes the British imperial authority and the Crown Colony status of the Straits Settlements, representing the British control of the land.

This design is a detailed heraldic depiction, paying tribute to the geographical, economic and colonial aspects of the historical Straits Settlements.

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.
