Escudo de Maicao Shot Glass - Design Details

This shot glass showcases the official Coat of Arms (Escudo) of Maicao, a municipality in La Guajira, Colombia. The design is a vibrant representation of the region's identity, history, and values.

Central Oval: A Divided Legacy

The core of the design is a central oval, mirroring the historical significance of Maicao. This central element is divided into three distinct sections:

Upper Right Pavilion

This section features a blue backdrop, upon which rests a prominent white six-pointed star, symbolizing the unity of the Colombian people. A laurel branch, representing the heroism, selflessness, and enduring legacy of the native people, elegantly complements the star. Two clasped hands underscore the bond and friendship between the Colombian and Venezuelan peoples.

Upper Left Pavilion

Against a backdrop of red, this pavilion displays a cornucopia overflowing with gold coins, accompanied by a symbol of Mercury. This is a nod to Maicao’s historical commitment to trade and a flourishing economy.

Lower Pavilion

This section embodies the territorial character of Maicao, with a natural landscape. Accompanying this is a watermill, symbolizing the liberty of the Guajiro people.

Supporting Elements

Encircling the oval are several symbolic elements:

An arch and two balanced arrows are included as a tribute to the original people of Maicao and their courageous defence. The oval is wrapped in a tricolor ribbon, signifying the alliance between the two nations, and proudly displays the mottoes "Unión y Progreso" and "Paz y Hermandad", further highlighting the core values.

Symbolism in Brief

  • Six-pointed Star: Represents the unification of the Colombian people.
  • Laurel Branch: Symbolizes the bravery and lasting impact of the native people.

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.
