Deventer Wapen 1890 Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the esteemed Deventer wapen, or coat of arms, as officially adopted in 1890, a proud symbol of the Dutch city of Deventer. The design is a vibrant embodiment of the city's rich history and civic heritage, reflecting medieval heraldic traditions.

Key Elements and Symbolism

Central to the design is a silver (or white) shield, a canvas upon which the defining element is displayed: a bold red "St. Andrew's cross," also known as a saltire. This cross, formed by the diagonal intersection of two bands, is a cornerstone of Deventer's identity. Above the shield, a regal crown sits, symbolizing the city's municipal authority and the historical privileges granted to Deventer throughout the centuries. The crown speaks to the city's self-governance and its significant role within the region.

Flanking the shield are two majestic lions, depicted as supporters. These lions, typically in a regal stance, represent strength, vigilance, and the city's enduring resolve. They serve as guardians of the Deventer wapen, reinforcing the city's reputation as a strong and prosperous Hanseatic trading center.

Color Palette and Historical Significance

The color scheme is intentionally striking. The silver shield provides a clean backdrop for the prominent red saltire, creating a visually compelling and easily recognizable design. The heraldic use of silver and red dates back to the medieval period, connecting the coat of arms to Deventer's deep historical roots. The overall design tells a story of Deventer's autonomy, its civic pride, and its historical significance as a prominent Hanseatic city.

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.
