Cuneo-Stemma (Italy) (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate and historically rich design of the Cuneo-Stemma, the coat of arms for the city of Cuneo, Italy. The design is a visual tapestry woven from elements that represent the city's history, dynastic ties, and civic pride.

The Shield: A Divided Display of Allegiances

The shield itself is the central focus, "troncato" (divided horizontally) into two distinct sections. The upper half is quartered, displaying a complex array of heraldic imagery:

  • 1st and 4th Quarters: Representing the old arms of the House of Saxony. These quarters are further "partito" (divided vertically), showcasing Vestfalia (a purple field with a silver rampant horse) and Saxony (horizontal stripes of gold and black). A green rue-wreath (crancelino) bendwise, and the Angevin "innesto d'Angria" (three red sword-hilts on silver) are superimposed.
  • 2nd Quarter: Depicts the Chablais / Chiablese region, with a silver field "sprinkled" with black plinths, and a black lion, red-armed and red-tongued, overall.
  • 3rd Quarter: Displays the arms of Aosta, featuring a black field and a silver (white) lion, with red claws and tongue.
  • Inescutcheon: A small shield on top carries the Savoy cross — a red field with a white cross.

The lower half of the shield is "fasciato" (horizontally striped) in red and white (silver).

Symbolism and Meaning

The elaborate design is rich in symbolism. The quartered upper shield signifies historical and dynastic allegiances, representing ties to Saxony, the House of Savoy, and regional lordships. The horizontal stripes in the lower section, in red and white, may symbolize valor and loyalty.

Additional Elements

Completing the design is a turreted crown, a typical feature of civic arms, signifying Cuneo's status as a city. Two palm branches further adorn the design.

A banner bearing the motto “Ferendo” (“By striking” or “Hitting”) adds a final layer of meaning, likely referencing Cuneo’s military history and its resilience during sieges.

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.
