Escudo de Caloto (Colombia) Pint Glass 16oz: A Visual Tapestry of History

Raise a glass to the rich history and vibrant identity of Caloto, Colombia! This pint glass showcases the Escudo de Caloto, the municipality's official coat of arms, a captivating design painted by Ana María Bejarano. The artwork is presented as if it were a shield crafted in the traditional "planchuela Española" (Spanish-style plated metal) with gold accents, mirroring the visual richness of the region itself.

Design Elements & Symbolism

The coat of arms is divided into three distinct sections, each contributing to a compelling narrative:

  • Upper Right Quarter: A dramatic depiction unfolds against a red backdrop. Here, a gold-painted indigenous arrow confronts a Spanish sword, embodying the often-violent encounter between the indigenous peoples and the Spanish colonizers.
  • Upper Left Quarter: A regal purple field provides the setting for a historical "miraculous bell," rendered in golden bronze. This bell symbolizes the colonial legacy, perhaps representing a significant church or religious tradition central to Caloto's identity.
  • Lower Quarter: The base quarter offers a landscape scene that represents the modern location of the town. A majestic mountain, the "Cerro de Munchique," defines the horizon of the scene, depicted on a blue background. The scene includes an oak tree, representing the natural abundance of the area.

The design features the name of the foundation in elegant gold lettering set on a blue band, a direct visual link to Caloto's founding history.

A Story in Every Detail

The Escudo de Caloto design is a potent visual summary, communicating: the blend of colonial and pre-colonial past, the spiritual legacy symbolized by the bell, the natural wealth conveyed by the mountain and oak tree, and the history of origin and resettlement.

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.
