Escudo de San José de Miranda Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the intricate and meaningful design of the Escudo de San José de Miranda, the coat of arms for the municipality of San José de Miranda in Santander, Colombia. The artwork is a faithful reproduction of the original heraldic design, rich with historical, religious, and cultural symbolism.

The Shield

The shield itself is divided into three sections ("medio partido y cortado"). The upper left section, colored red ("gules"), features the ruins of the old Tequia Temple, representing the town's indigenous and early colonial origins. The upper right section, in green ("sinople"), depicts the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Remedies, signifying the deep religious faith and devotion to the Virgin Mary within the community.

The lower section of the shield is sky blue ("azur"), displaying a woven basket overflowing with fruits and topped by a tiple, a traditional Colombian string instrument. This composition celebrates the region's agricultural abundance and its rich musical heritage.

Encircling the shield is a gold border, or "bordure," adorned with 16 black stars, representing the 16 rural neighborhoods ("veredas") that make up the municipality.

The Crest

Above the shield, the crest features a hawk ("gavilán") facing right. In its right claw, the hawk clutches a spear, symbolizing the bravery of the indigenous Tequies people in their resistance to the Spanish. In its left claw, the hawk holds a plow ("arado"), representing humility, hard work, and the significance of agriculture to the area.

Meaning and Symbolism

The colors and elements of the coat of arms are carefully chosen for their symbolism. Red symbolizes courage and the duty to help those in need. Green represents hope, honor, and the importance of agriculture. Blue signifies justice, loyalty, and the beauty of nature. Gold embodies justice, generosity, and responsibility. The black stars symbolize prudence, wisdom, and the agricultural character of the land. The hawk represents freedom, majesty, vigilance, and the spirit of the people.

The Motto

Beneath the shield, a ribbon displays the motto "Trabajo y Generosidad" ("Work and Generosity"), encapsulating the values of the community.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
