9º Gruppo Artiglieria Pesante “Rovigo” Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the distinctive coat of arms (distintivo) of the 9º Gruppo Artiglieria Pesante “Rovigo,” a unit of the Italian Army. The design is a powerful statement of military history, valor, and unit identity.

The Shield: A Quartered Emblem

The central element is a shield, divided into four distinct quarters, each representing a facet of the unit's heritage and service.

  • First Quarter: A blue field bearing a silver crenellated tower atop a green mound, with a silver five-pointed star above. This symbolizes the unit's origins in coastal artillery and its valorous traditions.
  • Second Quarter: A red field displaying the golden cross of the city of Messina, indicating a historical connection or past service in that area.
  • Third Quarter: A blue field featuring the silver Ukrainian trident, a symbol of the unit’s involvement in the Eastern Front (Ukraine), honoring the operations there.
  • Fourth Quarter: A silver field that displays a black eagle with golden wings bound in a trefoil shape, beaked and armed gold, with red flames on its chest (three red flames, positioned 2 & 1). This is associated with the city of Trento.

Above the Shield: Accoutrements of Honor

Above the shield rests the artillery heavy branch emblem, the unit number, and an ancient helmet. The unit number is shown on a silver plate. The helmet, in profile, is topped with three oak leaves, representing rank and valor.

Below the Shield: The Motto

The design is completed with a silver scroll with bifurcated ends in black and gold. This scroll bears the unit's motto: “Intimas hostium vias igne petimus,” meaning "We seek the innermost paths of the enemies by fire". This emphasizes the unit's artillery specialization.

This artwork is a vivid representation of a distinguished unit's legacy, combining historical symbols and meaningful elements to create a powerful and visually striking design.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 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 — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — 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 / ≈0.47 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 — 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.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
