Erquelinnes Coat of Arms Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the historic coat of arms, or "wapen," of Erquelinnes, a municipality in the province of Hainaut, Belgium. The design is a bold display of heraldic tradition, instantly recognizable for its striking color palette and symbolic imagery.

Visual Elements

The central design element is a shield, its background a vibrant azure blue. Across the shield's center lies a golden (or) horizontal band known as a "fess." Above and below this fess, the design features three gold lion heads. The lions' tongues are a vivid red, a detail described in heraldry as "lampassées de gueules." The entire shield is encircled by an indented gold border, known as "engrelée," which adds a distinctive visual texture to the design.

Meaning and Symbolism

The coat of arms has its roots in the De la Barre family, who were Lords of Erquelinnes. The golden fess and lion heads are directly derived from the family's heraldic insignia. The blue background is a classic heraldic color, often representing truth, loyalty, and strength. The lion heads are symbols of courage, valor, and royalty, reflecting the power and status associated with the De la Barre lineage. The indented gold border further emphasizes the municipality's identity, symbolizing the merger of Erquelinnes with surrounding communes.

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.
