Escudo de Zipacón (Colombia) Shot Glass: A Miniature Masterpiece

This shot glass showcases the intricate and meaningful design of the Escudo de Zipacón, the coat of arms of the Colombian municipality. The artwork encapsulates the rich history, geography, and cultural identity of the region, making it a powerful visual statement.

Key Design Elements and Their Significance

At the top, a black circle frames the name "Zipacón" in red, representing the "horizon comarcal," or regional horizon, and immediately establishing the location.

Below, a radiant sun shines on a yellow background. This element symbolizes the "god of their ancestors," deeply connecting the design to the Muisca heritage of the region.

Two broken chain links are boldly displayed, representing the hard-won freedom and liberation of enslaved people thanks to the local hero José Antonio Rubio. This emphasizes social justice and the pursuit of freedom.

A green background provides a foundation for several local symbols. These include a depiction of the town's church and a traditional thatched-roof house, illustrating the daily life, agricultural character and the continuity between the past and present. A hoe (azadón) adds agricultural symbolism, reflecting the rural aspects of Zipacón. Also, two blocks of coal are present, highlighting the area's history of coal wealth.

A railway line bisects the design, representing the infrastructure that has shaped Zipacón. Finally, the date of the discovery of the indigenous settlement, which provides historical context to the emblem, is placed at the bottom.

The "Llanto del Zipa" motto of the region, translated to "Cry of the Zipa," connects the design deeply to the pre-Columbian roots and the history of the Muisca people. This symbolism offers a beautiful tribute to the traditions and historical events that have formed the identity of Zipacón.

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.
