Cresciano Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the historical coat of arms of Cresciano, a former municipality in Ticino, Switzerland. The design is a striking heraldic composition, reflecting the region's heritage and key industries.

Visual Elements

The artwork is divided horizontally. The top portion presents a vibrant azure (blue) field. Dominating this upper section is a stone-block arch, suggesting a built structure. Below the arch, a sledgehammer and a chisel are crossed in an "X" shape (saltire) and rendered in a crisp argent (silver/white). These tools are symbols of the area's historical stone-working and quarrying traditions.

The lower half of the design features a gules (red) background. Across this field are seven diagonal stripes, known as "bendlets," rendered in argent (silver/white). This pattern adds a dynamic element to the design.

Symbolism & Meaning

The coat of arms, as depicted on this glass, is rich with symbolism. The sledgehammer and chisel clearly represent the importance of stone-working and building within the local Cresciano region. The stone-block arch further emphasizes the craft and building traditions. The seven silver diagonal stripes, whilst their specific origin is not known, contribute visual character and represent the visual identity of Cresciano.

The colors also carry traditional heraldic meanings: the azure (blue) often represents loyalty or truth, the gules (red) symbolizes strength or valor, and the argent (silver/white) signifies peace or sincerity.

This design serves as a visual reminder of the area's rich history and the industries that shaped its identity.

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.
