Escudo de Ventaquemada (Colombia) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the intricate design of the Escudo de Ventaquemada, the Coat of Arms of the Colombian town of Ventaquemada. The design is rich with symbolism, making it a powerful visual statement.

Shield and Border

The central element is a shield in the traditional "Spanish-classic" form, encircled by a red border. This border serves as a frame, containing key words in black lettering. "VENTAQUEMADA" arches across the top, while the founding year, "1777," rests at the bottom. "LEALTAD" (Loyalty) is emblazoned on the right side, and "TRABAJO" (Work) appears on the left, highlighting the town's core values.

Divided Quarters: Symbols of Justice, Knowledge, and History

The upper-left quarter, or "Chief Dexter," features a blue field adorned with a parchment scroll and a classical quill, representing education, record-keeping, and the importance of knowledge or governance. In the upper-right quarter, on a gold/yellow field, a balanced scale in gold symbolizes justice, fairness, and the law.

Base: Landscape and Military Heritage

The bottom section, or "Base," presents a landscape featuring the iconic Puente de Boyacá (Bridge of Boyacá) with a rising sun peeking over the hills, signifying hope and a new beginning. In front of the bridge, crossed weapons – an arquebus (old gun) and a pike (spear) – pay homage to Ventaquemada's military history, potentially referencing significant local battles.

Overall Interpretation

The overall design reflects Ventaquemada's values, historical significance, and aspirations. The elements of knowledge, justice, loyalty, and hard work are central. The bridge and weaponry connect the town to its past, while the rising sun paints a picture of a bright future.

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.
