Escudo de Aldeire Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the official Coat of Arms (Escudo) of Aldeire, a municipality in the province of Granada, Spain. The design is a striking representation of the town's history, heritage, and natural resources, all meticulously rendered in a classic heraldic style.

Shield Design

The shield itself is quartered in saltire, meaning it's divided into four sections by an "X" shape. Each quarter features a distinct element with its own symbolic significance:

  • First Quarter (Top): A green background, known as "sinople" in heraldry, is adorned with a silver (white) castle. The castle is masoned in black with green detailing, representing the historical fortress of Aldeire, dating back to the Reconquista period.
  • Second Quarter (Right): A silver background holds an almond tree, rooted and rendered in green. This signifies the importance of agriculture and the natural resources of Aldeire, specifically highlighting the almond trees grown in the region.
  • Third Quarter (Bottom): A silver background features a red ("gules") house. The house has silver windows and a door ("clarado de plata"), and reflects the etymological origin of the town's name, "Al-Dayr" or "Al-Dar," which translates to "house" and refers to a former Christian monastery.
  • Fourth Quarter (Left): A green background displays a red diagonal band ("banda de gules") edged in gold ("fileteada de oro"). This band represents the arms of the Mendoza family, the lords of Aldeire after its reconquest in 1490.

Crowning Glory

The shield is topped with a closed royal crown, serving as the "timbre." This regal element signifies the official status of the Coat of Arms and the municipality's connection to the historical and administrative framework of Spain.

This design is a testament to Aldeire's rich history and enduring spirit, beautifully captured in the classic style of heraldry.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” 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 / β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” 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.
