Escudo de Torre-Cardela (Spain) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Design Overview

This shot glass showcases the official coat of arms of Torre-Cardela, a municipality in the province of Granada, Spain. The design, approved in 2003, is a striking example of heraldic artistry, reflecting the history and identity of the town.

Detailed Description of the Coat of Arms

The shield itself is divided, or "partido," into two distinct fields. The first field, on the left, features a red tower on a golden background. This is a direct visual reference to the "Torre del Molino" (Tower of the Mill), an ancient defensive tower of Arabic origin from the 13th century, after which the town is named. The tower symbolizes the town's defensive past and its historical roots.

The second field, on the right, displays three red "jirones," or wedges, against a golden backdrop. This element likely represents the Girones, who were the first lords of Cardela in 1559, connecting the current municipality with a noble family from Granada.

A border, known as a "bordura," surrounds the main fields, and it's patterned with a three-order checkerboard design of gold and red squares. This complex border element reinforces the design and adds richness to the composition.

At the top, the shield is surmounted by a closed royal crown, which is a standard feature on Spanish municipal coats of arms. It represents the town's affiliation with the Spanish monarchy.

Visual Representation

The artwork of the coat of arms emphasizes the strong colors: gold (oro), red (gules). The detailed design, with its symbolic tower, Girones’ wedges, and checkerboard border, clearly conveys the heritage and historical significance of Torre-Cardela in a concise visual package.

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.
