Escudo Universidad Nacional de Colombia Shot Glass Design

This shot glass showcases the official coat of arms of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, a powerful symbol of academic tradition, autonomy, and the pursuit of knowledge.

Design Elements and Symbolism

The design is centered around the elaborately detailed, quartered shield. Each section of the shield represents a distinct area of knowledge:

  • Top Left (Scarlet): The scales of justice, symbolizing the importance of fairness and law.
  • Top Right (Blue): The caduceus, a traditional symbol of medicine and healing.
  • Bottom Left (Black): The Greek letter pi (π), representing mathematics and its foundational role in academia.
  • Bottom Right (Red): An arpa (harp), representing music, the arts, and creative expression.

At the heart of the shield lies a laurel branch, a symbol of victory, honor, and achievement. Above the shield, a majestic Andean condor proudly displays a banner emblazoned with Colombia's national motto, "Libertad y Orden" ("Liberty and Order").

Below the shield, a ribbon elegantly displays the university's Latin motto: "Inter Aulas Academiae Quaere Verum", which translates to "Seek Truth in the Halls of the Academy."

Updated Design

Originally designed in 1937 and updated for modern clarity, the artwork has been streamlined while retaining all of the core symbolic elements. This design reflects the University's dedication to its rich history and commitment to academic excellence.

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.
