Escudo del Magdalena Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass showcases the official Coat of Arms (Escudo) of the Magdalena Department in Colombia, a vibrant visual representation of its identity and history. The design, as adopted in 1986, is a powerful symbolic statement contained within a shield that blends Swiss and French heraldic traditions.

Shield Structure

The shield's form is divided into three horizontal sections, each contributing a significant element to the overall narrative. Two olive branches embrace the shield, signifying peace and harmony.

Upper Section

The uppermost portion features a field of azure blue, representing the vast sky. Dominating this section is the majestic Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the world's highest coastal mountain range. A radiant golden sun crowns the mountain, symbolizing the wisdom and nobility inherent in the people of Magdalena. At the base of the mountains is the green representation of the life-giving Río Magdalena.

Central Section

The central field combines the colors gules (red) and azure. A striking depiction of the Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino, rendered in silver, anchors this section. This historic site is the final resting place of Simón Bolívar. Behind the Quinta, the flag of the Magdalena Department proudly waves, embodying the unity and dedication of its citizens.

Lower Section

The lowest segment is a field of gules (red). A golden Tayrona pendant, an exquisite piece of pre-Columbian goldwork, is the centerpiece. This artifact serves as a poignant reminder of the region's rich indigenous heritage and the artistic brilliance of its ancestral peoples.

Symbolic Significance

Each element carries profound meaning. The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta signifies the department's unique geography, encompassing diverse landscapes. The golden sun represents the intelligence and integrity of the people. The Río Magdalena highlights the lifeblood of the region's economy and culture. The Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino commemorates the struggle for independence. The department's flag symbolizes collective identity, while the Tayrona pendant honors the region's historical roots and artistic legacy.

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.
