Esc Mex Porfirista 1898 a 1916 Pint Glass Design

A Glimpse into Mexican History

This pint glass showcases the "Esc. Mex. Porfirista" coat of arms, a distinctive emblem of Mexico used between 1898 and 1916. The design reflects the artistic sensibilities and political climate of the late Porfiriato, a period under the rule of Porfirio Díaz.

The Artistry of the Eagle

The central element of this design is the golden eagle, rendered with meticulous detail and a more realistic style than earlier versions. The eagle is depicted in a striking pose, facing left, a characteristic feature of this specific era's emblem.

Symbolism and Narrative

The eagle stands proudly upon a nopal cactus, which grows from a rock emerging from a lake. In its beak and talons, the eagle grasps a serpent. This powerful image is a direct visual representation of the Aztec legend, the founding myth of Tenochtitlán, the Aztec capital.

A Wreath of Victory and Strength

Completing the design is a semi-circular wreath encircling the base. Oak branches on the left symbolize strength, while laurel branches on the right represent victory. These elements further enhance the visual richness and symbolism of this historical emblem.

A Legacy of Design

The "Escudo Mexicano Porfirista" is known for its elegant, European-influenced design. It offers a window into the artistic and cultural influences present during a pivotal period of Mexican history, making this pint glass a striking tribute to a unique chapter in Mexico's visual heritage.

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.
