Flag of Agha Mohammad Khan (Iran) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A gold lion strides across a red field beneath a sunburst with a face, the emblem that carried the Qajar dynasty's banner into Iranian history.

Visual Elements & Composition

Red dominates this design, covering roughly three-quarters of the field and giving the whole composition its punch. Pale yellow takes up much of the remainder, and gold picks out the lion and the sun. The lion walks to the right inside a pale circle, a circular badge that frames it like a seal, while the sun, rendered with a face and rays, sits behind the animal. The layout is centred and balanced, with the circle and the rectangular field working together in a flat, clean-edged style.

Meaning & Symbolism

The lion and sun is one of Iran's most recognisable emblems, and this banner brings that motif into the Qajar era. Agha Mohammad Khan founded the Qajar dynasty, was crowned shah in 1796, and ruled until his assassination in 1797. The red field and the lion-and-sun pairing reflect the heraldic language of that period, when emblems signalled dynastic authority. Every element here reads as a statement of rule, drawn in the formal manner of a dynasty that wanted its legitimacy seen.

On the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small, held close and tipped back in a single movement, so the design sits right under the drinker's eye at the moment of the toast. The circular badge suits that intimacy: the lion and sun read like a seal you turn in your fingers, and the sun's rays seem to radiate toward the rim as the glass lifts. Give it to someone who likes a story with their drink, and the history comes along with the pour.

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.
