Escudo Histórico de San Juan de Puerto Rico Siglo XIX (Coat of Arms) Shot Glass

This shot glass showcases a faithful reproduction of the "Escudo Histórico de San Juan de Puerto Rico" from the 19th century. The artwork presents the historic coat of arms, a powerful visual statement of the city's past.

Design Elements and Meaning

The central element of the design is the shield, typically bisected in silver and red, reflecting traditional heraldic colors. The silver, or "argent," symbolizes peace and sincerity, while the red, or "gules," embodies strength and valor.

Dominating the shield's design is the iconic depiction of a castle or fortified structure, strongly referencing Castillo San Felipe del Morro, a crucial part of San Juan's fortifications. This castle represents vigilance, defense, and the city's significant historical importance as a strategic military outpost.

Above the shield, the design incorporates a royal crown, a clear indication of San Juan's allegiance to the Spanish monarchy during the 19th century. This signifies the city's status under Spanish colonial rule. Additional elements, such as keys or crosses, might appear, representing authority, protection, and the Christian heritage integral to the city's identity.

Historical Significance

The artwork directly connects to the 1800s, reflecting the era when this coat of arms was prevalent. The imagery emphasizes San Juan's position as a vital defense and administrative hub within Spain's colonial holdings. Each element, from the colors to the symbols, tells a story of the city's rich past, making this shot glass a visual testament to San Juan's heritage.

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.
