Escudo Colonial de Bogotá Shot Glass Design

Raise a toast to history with this exquisitely detailed design, a miniature replica of the Escudo Colonial de Bogotá, the historic coat of arms of Bogotá, Colombia. This design is a striking tribute to the city's colonial past and its rich heritage.

Central Emblem: The Imperial Eagle

The centerpiece of the design is a majestic black eagle, rendered with meticulous detail. Its wings are dramatically displayed, signifying power and authority. The eagle is crowned in gold, symbolizing imperial power, specifically referencing Emperor Charles V, who granted the original coat of arms.

Symbolism of the Eagle

The eagle's powerful presence on this design represents the link to Spanish imperial authority and the historical ties of Bogotá to the Habsburg Empire. The golden crown further emphasizes this imperial connection.

The Pomegranates: A Symbolic Pun

Held firmly in the eagle's talons are two vibrant red pomegranates. These fruits, a play on words (granada), directly reference the “New Granada” name, connecting the coat of arms to the region's geographical identity.

The Border and Its Significance

Surrounding the central shield is a striking blue border, or orla, adorned with nine golden pomegranates. These nine pomegranates are believed to represent the nine territorial divisions, or provinces, that constituted the New Kingdom of Granada during the colonial era, offering a visual representation of the administrative divisions of the time.

A Heritage in Miniature

This design encapsulates the essence of the Escudo Colonial de Bogotá. It encapsulates the imperial heritage and the regional identity of the historic city. Every element is a reminder of Bogotá's rich history, from the imperial power of the eagle to the symbolic pomegranates of New Granada.

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.
