CommunesBelgique-Charleroi (Belgium) (Coat of Arms) Pint Glass 16oz - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the heraldic artistry of Charleroi, Belgium, a design steeped in history and symbolism. The primary visual element is the city's coat of arms, a powerful emblem that tells a story of the city's origins and evolution.

The Design Elements

The central focus of the design is a striking silhouette of a hexagonal silver fortress against a black (sable) backdrop. This fort represents the original fortified site which served as the foundation for the city of Charleroi.

Circling the fortress are twelve radiant five-pointed gold (or) stars, arranged in a circular pattern. This array of stars is a clear reference to the European community and its ideals.

Above the central motif, a unique "checkerboard" element adds another layer of meaning. This strip consists of fifteen alternating red (gueules) and silver squares, arranged in two rows of eight and seven respectively, symbolizing the fifteen former municipalities that merged to form the modern city of Charleroi.

Crowning the design is a diminished silver (argent) chief, a top bar, bearing a single, vibrant red (gueules) fleur-de-lys. This elegant detail pays homage to French historical influence and commemorates France's pivotal role in the city's development.

Symbolism and Meaning

The entire composition speaks to Charleroi's rich past, its ties to Europe, and its French heritage. The fortress represents its roots, the stars reflect its connection to Europe, the checkerboard squares represent its municipal structure, and the fleur-de-lys points to the area's historical relationship with France.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” 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 / β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” 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.
