Escudo de Machetá Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the striking design of the Escudo de Machetá, the coat of arms for the municipality of Machetá in Cundinamarca, Colombia. The artwork mirrors the heraldic tradition with a classic Spanish-style shield, filled with symbolic representations of the town's history and identity.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The shield's border, or bordure, features the inscription "MACHETÁ VUESTRA HONROSA LABRANZA" – a motto derived from the Chibcha language, meaning roughly "your honorable cultivation/land." This phrase frames the imagery, emphasizing the community's agricultural roots and heritage.

The upper section of the shield, set against a white (argent) background, presents a unique figure composed of 17 golden hexagons. These represent the 17 original rural subdivisions (veredas) of Machetá, with the honeycomb pattern symbolizing the integration, industriousness, and collective work of the town's people.

The central part of the design incorporates two horizontal stripes, echoing the colors of the municipal flag. A green (sinople) stripe and a red (gules) stripe run across the center of the shield, visually linking the coat of arms to the town's official colors.

In the lower section, a silver/argent map of Machetá is displayed against a blue (azure) background. This emphasizes the municipality's geographic identity and connection to its territory.

The overall composition merges the hexagonal human/honeycomb symbolism, territorial map, and flag colors to reflect Machetá's historical roots, agricultural foundation, and geographical significance.

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.
