Erroneous Flag of South Australia 1908 Shot Glass: Design

This shot glass showcases a historical misrepresentation: the "Erroneous Flag of South Australia (1908)." The design features a visual snapshot of a bygone error in flag iconography, a testament to the challenges of accurate information dissemination in the early 20th century.

Artwork Details

The primary design element is the state badge, a crucial component that distinguishes the erroneous version from the official flag. Instead of the correct image of a Piping Shrike on a golden rising sun, this design proudly (and incorrectly) presents the outdated badge. It typically features the image of Britannia meeting an Aboriginal man, rendered in a style that reflects the engraving errors common at the time. This emblem is presented on a white disc. The blue field of the Ensign is not always accurate and can deviate from the correct version, contributing to the erroneous nature.

Symbolism of the Misrepresented

While the overall design is flawed, it represents a historical mistake. The inclusion of the wrong badge points to a time when information distribution was less efficient, leading to this historical curiosity. It reminds the viewer of how inaccuracies can occur. The choice of this flag represents the early years of the Australian state and the challenges it had in the early twentieth century.

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.
