Escudo de Quito TVH (Ecuador) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the Escudo de Quito (TVH), a modern artistic rendition of Quito, Ecuador's official coat of arms. Created by the designer Heralder, this vibrant design pays homage to the city's rich history and symbolic heritage.

Central Shield Elements

The focal point is the central shield, dominated by a striking red field. Within this, a silver castle stands prominently between two imposing mountains, visually representing the city's fortified strength and its mountainous geographical setting nestled within the Andes.

Above the castle, a golden Christian cross is centrally positioned, upheld by two black eagles, each crowned with gold. This arrangement speaks to Quito's deeply rooted Christian foundation and its imperial connection to the Holy Roman Empire during the Spanish colonial era.

Additional Heraldic Components

Crowning the shield, a golden helmet adorned with red and blue plumes signifies nobility and honor, reflecting Quito's esteemed status. The shield is further enhanced by a decorative border, often depicted with golden ropes, lending a sense of heraldic grandeur.

Supporting the shield, vibrant floral motifs, such as red flowers, contribute a touch of local flora to the overall design, representing the lush natural environment surrounding Quito.

Symbolism and Representation

Every element within this design carries significant meaning. The castle embodies strength, the mountains signify the geographical setting, and the Christian cross underscores the city's religious heritage. The eagles emphasize the historical ties to the Holy Roman Empire, while the golden helmet and plumes denote nobility.

The overall composition is a contemporary interpretation of a historical symbol, celebrating Quito's enduring cultural identity and deep-rooted 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.
