Flag of the Smithsonian Institution (United States) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design centres a stylised golden sun inside a teal blue circular badge, the institutional banner of the Smithsonian Institution.

Visual Elements & Composition

Teal blue and golden yellow share the design almost evenly, with the two colours nearly equal in weight. A square grid of quarters sits behind a circular badge, and inside the badge a sun with flame-like rays draws the eye to the middle. The style is flat vector with clean edges, so the shapes stay sharp and simple at small sizes.

Meaning & Symbolism

The Smithsonian is a federation of museums, galleries and research centres founded in the United States, and its banner gathers those institutions under one recognisable mark. The rising sun with radiating rays signals discovery and learning, while the ordered grid of quarters reflects the careful cataloguing and classification at the heart of the institution's work.

Made for the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the badge is seen up near the eye as it is lifted. Its round form suits a circular emblem, and the sun sits centred within the glass where it catches the light from across the table.

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.
