Escudo de Pitalito Huila (Colombia) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the official Coat of Arms of Pitalito, a municipality in the Huila Department of Colombia, designed to embody the region's rich heritage.

Visual Elements and Their Meaning

The design features a Spanish-style shield, the core of the Pitalito Coat of Arms. The backdrop of the shield is rendered in a verdant green (sable), symbolizing the fertile valley that is the heart of Pitalito's geography.

A horizontal blue band (celeste franja) elegantly traverses the shield, representing the vital waterways of the region: the Magdalena, Guachicos, and Guarapas rivers, as well as the GuaitipĂĄ Lagoon. These elements highlight Pitalito's connection to its natural environment.

At the center of the shield is a prominent clay pot (jarrĂłn de arcilla). This beautifully crafted vessel pays homage to the renowned Laboyana pottery, a significant cultural and economic aspect of the area, specifically referencing the iconic "chiva" design.

Supporting the clay pot, two silver hands are depicted, symbolizing the diligent labor and artistry of the Laboyan people. Beneath the hands, a silver pottery wheel further underscores the artisanal tradition and the practice of pottery making that defines Pitalito's cultural identity.

Inscriptions and Symbolic Significance

The coat of arms incorporates the inscriptions "San Antonio de Laboyos", the official name honoring the town’s patron saint, and the year "1818", commemorating Pitalito’s founding, grounding the design in history and heritage.

The overall design is a vibrant and symbolic representation of Pitalito, with each element contributing to the narrative of its geography, economy, culture, and enduring history.

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.
