Escudo Colonial de La Habana Shot Glass - Design Overview

This shot glass showcases the iconic Escudo Colonial de La Habana, the historic coat of arms granted to Havana, Cuba during the Spanish colonial era. The design is a powerful visual statement reflecting the city's rich history, strategic significance, and vibrant maritime heritage.

Shield Composition

The coat of arms is meticulously divided into three distinct sections, forming a tierced per pale composition. Each section represents a key aspect of Havana's identity during the colonial period.

Symbolic Elements

The left section proudly displays a fortified castle. This emblem represents the city’s robust defenses and its status as a heavily guarded settlement. Across from the castle on the right, a prominent key takes center stage, symbolizing Havana's crucial role as the “Key to the New World.” This image underscores the city's control over access to the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, making it a pivotal strategic location.

The bottom section of the shield depicts the sea with ships, an evocative scene illustrating Havana's thriving commerce, maritime activity, and its significance as a bustling port city. This depiction reflects the vital role Havana played in the colonial trade routes.

Color Palette

The design utilizes a classic color palette steeped in Spanish heraldic tradition. Gold and red, the primary colors, are used to represent wealth and power. Contrasting colors are often used to emphasize the castle and key, highlighting their individual symbolic importance within the overall design.

This design serves as a lasting tribute to Havana’s past, encapsulating the city's defensive strength, strategic importance, and maritime legacy in a single, compelling image.

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.
