Esc. Mex. Porfirista 1880 a 1914 Pint Glass - Design

This pint glass showcases a meticulously rendered representation of the "Esc. Mex. Porfirista" – the Mexican Coat of Arms as it appeared during the Porfirian era, spanning from 1880 to 1914.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central focus is the majestic eagle, depicted in a neoclassical style, reflecting the European influences prevalent during Porfirio Díaz's rule. The eagle is shown in a dynamic pose, often facing forward or to the left, with detailed feathers and a commanding presence. It perches upon a vibrant green nopal cactus, its roots firmly planted on a rocky outcrop rising from a body of water, subtly representing a lake. A realistically rendered snake, coiled in the eagle's beak or talons, symbolizes the Aztec foundation myth of Tenochtitlán.

The entire composition is framed by an elegant wreath of oak and laurel branches. The oak leaves signify strength and endurance, while the laurel represents victory and triumph. The design presents a visual harmony, combining detailed lines and shading to create a striking, historically significant piece of artwork.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design, at its core, embodies the foundation of Mexico. The eagle, the central figure, symbolizes strength, vigilance, and the nation's soaring aspirations. The nopal cactus, rooted in the earth, alludes to the precise location where the Aztec people established their capital, Tenochtitlán, and thus, where the city of Mexico was founded. The serpent's demise underscores the triumph of good over evil. The oak and laurel wreath surrounding the imagery further emphasize power, honor, and achievement. This design pays tribute to a specific era in Mexican history when the country underwent a period of modernization and transformation.

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.
