Driebruggen Coat of Arms Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the historical coat of arms (Dutch: wapen) of the former municipality of Driebruggen in the Netherlands. The design is a vibrant representation of the town's history, expertly rendered to capture the essence of its unique heraldry.

The Quartered Shield

The central element of the design is a shield, divided into four distinct quadrants, reflecting the merger of several older municipalities. This quartered arrangement is a classic example of Dutch heraldic tradition, symbolizing the unification of different areas under a single identity.

Detailed Symbolism

Each quadrant of the shield is meticulously detailed with meaningful symbols:

  • Quadrant I (Top Left): A silver duck (or "woerd") with a golden beak, set against an azure (blue) background. This represents the former municipality of Waarder.
  • Quadrant II (Top Right): A black mill-iron, displayed on a silver background. This refers to Hekendorp.
  • Quadrant III (Bottom Left): A pair of black "dry-shears" (droogscheerdersschaar) placed diagonally on a silver background, alluding to Lange Ruige Weide and possibly referencing agricultural or textile traditions.
  • Quadrant IV (Bottom Right): A golden bishop's mitre, lined with azure (blue) and adorned with rubies and emeralds, against a red (keel) background. This quadrant references Papekop, with its historical connections to the church.

The Crown

The shield is crowned with a golden coronet of three leaves and two pearls, adding a touch of regal elegance. This detail further enhances the official and historical nature of the design.

Overall Meaning

The complete design is a powerful symbolic representation of the history of Driebruggen, uniting the elements of the former municipalities into a cohesive visual statement. The rich symbolism allows you to showcase a piece of the Netherlands, connecting history and artistry.

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.
