Escudo de Santiago Chile 1863-1913 Shot Glass: Design Description

This shot glass features the iconic Escudo de Santiago, the municipal coat of arms used by the city of Santiago, Chile, from 1863 to 1913. The design is a bold statement of identity, reflecting the city’s geography and its connection to the Mapocho River.

Design Elements and Representation

The shield itself is outlined with a gold (yellow) border, giving a touch of elegance. The upper portion of the shield portrays a sky-blue backdrop with the depiction of hills or mountains, likely representing the majestic Andes mountain range that defines the city's location.

The lower portion of the shield is azure (blue), symbolizing water and a nod to the life-giving Mapocho River that flows through Santiago. A central white band, known as a fess, runs horizontally across the shield. This band prominently displays the word "MAPOCHO", which directly names and honors the significance of the river to Santiago.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design speaks volumes about the city. The placement of the word "MAPOCHO" at the forefront emphasizes the river's importance to the city's life and geography. The depiction of the mountains highlights Santiago's position near the Andes, a striking geographical feature.

The overall simplicity of the design, with its focus on geographical elements and the river's name, reflects a modern municipal identity for the 19th century, moving away from purely heraldic symbols of the past.

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.
