Escudo de Puerto Tejada - Cauca (Colombia) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the official Escudo (Coat of Arms) of Puerto Tejada, a municipality in the Cauca Department of Colombia. Designed by Licenciada Alicia Castillo, the artwork is a striking representation of the town's identity and history.

Key Design Elements

At the heart of the design is the escudo itself, a heraldic emblem imbued with meaning. The central feature is the shield, the exact elements of which are not fully documented in available sources, making the imagery a key mystery to be solved. However, the presence of the founding date, "17 de Septiembre 1897," positioned on a scroll across the top, immediately grounds the design in the town's origins and a sense of heritage.

Below the primary shield design, another scroll proclaims "Puerto Tejada" and the region "Departamento del Cauca," further reinforcing civic pride and belonging. The design as a whole is a compact and visually powerful statement of the municipality’s history and identity.

Symbolic Significance

While the full symbolism of the shield's central elements remains unconfirmed by the sources, the design's focus on the founding date highlights respect for Puerto Tejada's origins. The inclusion of the town's name and its departmental affiliation emphasizes local and regional pride. The use of the escudo on the municipal flag suggests its importance as a central emblem of civic identity.

This design is more than just a decorative element; it's a visual embodiment of Puerto Tejada's historical roots and its place within the Cauca Department.

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.
