Escudo Nacional de España 1981 Shot Glass - Design Description

This shot glass showcases the official El Escudo Nacional de España, adopted in 1981, rendered in a striking circular design. The artwork mirrors the heraldic structure of the national coat of arms, evoking the grandeur of official Spanish representation.

The Elements of the Design

The core of the design is the shield, quartered and featuring a point at its base. The first quarter is a vibrant red field (gules) bearing a golden castle, an emblem of strength and sovereignty, with blue windows and black mortar. The second quarter displays a rampant purple lion (representing León), crowned and armed with red claws and tongue, on a silver background. The third quarter shows four red stripes (palos) against a golden field, symbolizing the Crown of Aragon. The fourth quarter features a golden chain in the shape of a cross, saltire and orle, centered by an emerald. The base point depicts a natural pomegranate fruit, open to reveal its red seeds, with green leaves, symbolizing Granada.

Flanking the shield are two silver columns with golden bases and capitals, representing the Pillars of Hercules. These stand atop waves of blue and silver, symbolizing the ocean. The columns are crowned; the right column with an imperial crown and the left with a royal crown. A red ribbon adorned with golden lettering wraps around the columns, bearing the Latin motto "PLVS VLTRA" ("More Beyond"), reflecting Spain's exploration of the world.

Crowning the entire composition is the closed Royal Crown, a symbol of Spanish monarchy. It consists of a golden circle adorned with precious stones, featuring eight fleurons of acanthus leaves (visible five), interspersed with pearls. From these leaves, five diadems emerge, converging at the top in a blue orb (azure) crossed with a golden meridian and equator, topped with a golden cross.

The design as a whole presents the rich history, power, and cultural legacy of Spain, using a complex array of symbols to communicate themes of royalty, strength, and exploration.

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.
