Escudo de Albolote Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the heraldic artistry of the Escudo de Albolote, the coat of arms of the Spanish town of Albolote, near Granada. The design is a powerful visual representation of the town's history and heritage.

Divided Shield

The design is centered around a shield, "cortado" (divided horizontally) into two distinct sections.

Top Section

The top section features a vibrant red background ("gules"). In the center, a natural-colored fig tree is flanked by two mounted knights facing each other: one Moorish, one Christian. The knights are depicted in silver (white). Framing this scene is a green border ("bordure sinople") adorned with eight golden acorns, a direct reference to the town's name, which means "village of the oaks (or acorns)."

Bottom Section

The bottom section mirrors the top with its red background. A gold band ("banda de oro") is the central element, "engolada" (swallowing) two gold dragon heads with red tongues ("linguados de gules"). Encircling this is a blue border ("bordure azure") decorated with two fleur-de-lis (one top, one bottom) and two silver columns, positioned on either side.

Royal Crown

Crowning the entire shield is a royal (open) crown, signifying Albolote's historical ties to lordship and its ducal status.

Symbolism

The overall design is rich in symbolism. The fig tree and the knights symbolize the Battle of La Higueruela (1431). The acorns in the border pay homage to Albolote's Arabic name, "village of the oaks (or acorns)." The band and dragon heads are borrowed from the Álvarez de Bohórquez family's coat of arms, former lords of Albolote. Finally, the fleur-de-lis and columns further hint at this family's lineage.

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.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
