Escudo de Felipe de Tassis (Spain) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases the heraldic achievement of Felipe de Tassis y Acuña, a prominent Spanish churchman and nobleman, featuring a striking and meaningful design. The artwork is meticulously crafted to reflect his coat of arms, or "escudo," as it would appear in traditional Spanish heraldry.

Visual Elements and Representation

The design is centered on a quartered shield, providing a visually balanced composition. The upper half presents a golden field ("Or") emblazoned with a majestic black Imperial Eagle ("Sable"), a symbol of power, imperial status, and high rank. This imagery is particularly relevant given Felipe's ecclesiastical appointments and noble standing.

The lower half features a blue ("Azure") background, upon which a silver "taso" (a stylized badger or animal figure, "Argent") is depicted. This "taso" is a direct reference to the Tassis family name, representing a clever heraldic pun and a connection to his lineage.

A distinctive element is added on the heraldic left (viewer's right) side: a vertical stripe, or "pale," featuring blue triangular shapes ("pâllets") set against a golden background. This suggests a familial branch, marriage alliance, or inheritance, reflecting a nuanced aspect of Spanish heraldry.

Enhancing the design are the ecclesiastical heraldic ornaments, which are the green galero (hat) with its tassels, and the double-barred (patriarchal) cross, which are specific symbols of his high clerical status as Bishop of Palencia and Archbishop of Granada.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design speaks volumes about Felipe de Tassis y Acuña's life and status. The Imperial Eagle signifies his high position and connection to nobility and governance. The "taso" animal directly links to his family name, forming a visual pun that’s central to his identity. The inclusion of the "pâllets" within the pale hints at familial intricacies or affiliations.

Ultimately, this design, adapted for a pint glass, provides a fascinating glimpse into the visual language of heraldry, offering a compelling artistic expression reflecting history, identity, and meaning.

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.
