De Montfort University Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Overview

This pint glass showcases the heraldic arms of De Montfort University, a striking visual representation of the institution's history and values. The design is a miniature masterpiece of heraldry, meticulously recreated on the surface of the glass.

Central Elements: The Shield

At the heart of the design lies the shield, the focal point of the coat of arms. Dominating the field is a vibrant red background, or "Gules" in heraldic terms, symbolizing courage and strength. Superimposed upon this vibrant backdrop is a magnificent golden lion, "Or," rendered in the "passant guardant" pose, walking with one paw raised and its head facing the viewer. The lion embodies bravery and vigilance, key attributes honored by the university.

Beneath the lion, a silver cinquefoil, or five-petaled flower, "Argent," is proudly displayed. This elegant floral element directly alludes to the university's motto, "Excellence and Zeal." The silver color represents peace and sincerity.

The Border and its Significance

Encircling the central shield is a golden border, known as the "bordure." This decorative element serves the dual purpose of framing the design and representing protection and unity. The gold color, like the lion, also symbolizes generosity and the elevation of the mind.

A Legacy in Design

The overall design reflects the rich medieval heritage of Leicester, home to De Montfort University. This carefully crafted design is a proud emblem of academic excellence, honoring the legacy of Simon de Montfort and the university's dedication to its founding principles.

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.
